Broinowski had a wide circle of literary friends, and served as editor of two poetry magazines, Spinner and Birth. Driven by his ideals and a passionate nature, he was determined to make an impact on society. Twice married, his relationship with the sons of his first marriage was marred by bitterness and hurt.
A maverick, an enthusiast and perhaps an unsung hero, Robert Broinowski was indeed a witness to history.
