John Wood (born 14 July 1946 in Melbourne) is a Gold Logie Award-winning Australian actor and writer, best known for his role as Senior Sergeant Tom Croydon in the Seven Network's long running police drama Blue Heelers.
Wood began his acting career in 1967, where he had a guest role in Bellbird, an Australian television series. He then appeared in several Australian drama series and mini-series in minor roles. John also wrote eleven episodes of the series Prisoner. It wasn't until 1987 that John Wood became a well-known actor, taking the lead in Rafferty's Rules, as magistrate Michael Rafferty. Wood twice won a Logie for "Most Outstanding Actor" for his role in the show during its four seasons.
In 1993 Wood landed a leading role in Blue Heelers as Tom Croydon. This show became a big hit in Australia. As well as starring in the show, he also wrote several episodes. The show was finally cancelled in 2006, and Wood is one of only two actors (the other being Julie Nihill) to star in Blue Heelers from its beginning in 1993 to its end in 2006, although Wood is the only character to be seen in every single episode. Wood also wrote three episodes for the series.

John Wood was a rising executive with Microsoft when he took a vacation that changed his life. What started as a trekking holiday in Nepal, back in 1998, became a spiritual journey and later a mission to change the world one book and one child at a time, by setting up libraries in the developing world. He ditched his career and went in pursuit of what was then a vague vision of the change he hoped to bring about for the 800 million people in the developing world who lack basic literacy.

Bristol-based duo Paul Harrison and John Wood could be described as an art-world equivalent to Laurel and Hardy. In this film the artists invite TateShots to meet them at their studio. Their videos, showing their dead-pan antics as they dangle precariously from a ladder, slide on office chairs around the back of a moving van, and submit themselves to a drenching from dozens of watering cans, are both hilarious and thought provoking.

In June 2007, the Australian government took the unprecedented step of suspending its Race Relations Act to introduce the Intervention - a series of draconian, federal-backed laws designed to control the flow of alcohol and pornography into 'prescribed communities' in the Northern Territory.

John Wood, founder of Room to Read, talks with Tony Zameczkowski, Vice President of Business Development, Asia for Netflix, at Netflix’s Singapore offices on February 9, 2017
Room to Read has for several years been one of Google Zürich’s most loved charities, frequently appearing in GServe and Giving Week. We are joined by John Wood, the founder of Room to Read, to talk about how the charity collaborates with local governments, schools, communities and families to ensure they understand the importance of literacy and the role that they can play in helping girls and women achieve their full potential. John Wood is also joined by Saluom Lak, one of the charities success cases from Cambodia who gave some insight into how Room to Read has changed her life. Moderated by Raphael Leiteritz.
John Wood discovered his passion, his greatest success, and his life's work--not at business school or leading Microsoft's charge into Asia in the 1990s--but on a soul-searching trip to the Himalayas. Wood felt trapped between an all-consuming career and a desire to do something lasting and significant. Stressed from the demands of his job, he took a vacation trekking in Nepal because a friend had told him, "If you get high enough in the mountains, you can't hear Steve Ballmer yelling at you anymore." Later, Wood made the decision to walk away from Microsoft and create Room to Read, a nonprofit that has touched the lives of 875,000 children with the lifelong gift of education. After earning an MBA at the Kellogg School of Management, John Wood worked for several years in banking before...

John Wood was an international Microsoft executive who opted out of the comfortable life he knew. Compelled by the idea that no child should be limited in opportunities by his or her birthplace, he founded Room to Read in 2000, establishing schools, libraries and special programs to educate girls in some of the lowest-income places in the world. Since that time, Room to Read has benefitted more than 9 million children worldwide, and will reach their 10 millionth student by the end of 2015.
