Early Life
Carter was born to Percy and Doris Carter in August 1928 in Melbourne, Victoria, and attended Melbourne Boys High School.

His first photos were taken with a Kodak Box Brownie, given to him as a 13th birthday present.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Betwixt the black fronts long-withdrawn
A light-blue lane of early dawn,”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“We cannot discuss the state of our minorities until we first have some sense of what we are, who we are, what our goals are, and what we take life to be. The question is not what we can do now for the hypothetical Mexican, the hypothetical Negro. The question is what we really want out of life, for ourselves, what we think is real.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
