FENCER FRED - Key Persons

Fencer Fred is a pen name for Stephen D Aspden, who was born into a family of nine children at Wairoa, a small town on the East Coast of New Zealand's North Island in 1952. He grew up being active in sports to avoid working in the family's car-wrecking and repair business. Around fourteen years of age he began farm fencing and has never really stopped, even during the eight years he spent teaching at primary schools.
