Rose Vines exhibited signs of being a rabblerouser from an early age. Her first protest action, at age 11, was to pen a letter to Victoria’s premier urging him not to hang Ronald Ryan. Despite her efforts, Ryan was hanged at Pentridge Prison in 1967, the last person executed in Australia.

Undaunted, Rose went on to polish her activist skills at Sydney University while majoring in English and computer programming. She worked for small community organizations and large publishing companies as both a programmer and a writer before heading northeast across the Pacific only to end up in the Deep South.

Rose works to end the death penalty and writes about using art for social change. She is responsible for this site and the Graphic Dead Man Walking newsletter.
