Rupert Murdoch - Early life
Murdoch was born in Melbourne, Australia. His father was Sir Keith Murdoch, a stern and somewhat distant figure who was the son of a Presbyterian minister from Scotland. The elder Murdoch worked as a journalist and adviser to Billy Hughes, the Prime Minister of Australia during World War I, and became Australia's most influential newspaper executive, directing the Melbourne-based Herald and Weekly Times Ltd. He was reportedly often frustrated by young Murdoch's early progress and despaired of his son being able to take over from him. Rupert Murdoch was deeply influenced by his father, and although he clearly wished to emulate him, he often rebelled.
Murdoch's mother is Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, née Elisabeth Greene, who came from an upper-class family of Irish and English Protestant descent. Dame Elisabeth, at 96, remains a strong influence on Rupert, usually in the direction of moderation. The young Murdoch was educated at Geelong Grammar School and later at Worcester College at the University of Oxford.
