Born in England in 1925, Gleghorn arrived in Australia in 1928. Though trained as an engineer, he started painting at 24, receiving help and encouragement from William Dobell. He worked as an artist and designer in Sydney retail stores for some years. In recent years he has applied abstract expressionist methods to his experience of landscape. His work is represented in some state galleries. Edit or add to this biography
