Description

Ringer and horse breaker, Kevin Malay is quintessentially Kimberley. A Gija and Worrorra man, Kevin grew up sleeping in a swag following his father around the stock camps of the Kimberley. School of the Air happened on a two-way radio.

He's been in the bush ever since, carrying on a proud family tradition started by his late grandfather, the legendary Kimberley cattleman Sallay Malay. And those striking looks: Kevin's great grandfather, Sallay Mahomet, was one of the north's last great Afghan Cameleers. It's an epic family story.
