The only mention of him I could find on the AOS site was a thank-you in 
a Lindleyana article from 1989, but from the article content I found 
references elsewhere that place him in Evandale, Tasmania. It appears he 
works with a friend, Barry Davidson, on his terrestrial orchid breeding, 
and that both are active in rhododendron breeding too.

According to OrchidWIz he registered two Pleione hybrids as recently as 
2017. Sorry, that's all I found.
