Anglo-Swedish Lawrence was born in London in 1942 and raised in Vancouver, Mexico City, Kingston Jamaica and New York's Greenwich Village. In 1960 he travelled to Spain to study at the University of Madrid, and in that same year was sent by a fellow student to meet Montefrio's great flamenco singer Manuel Avila, who became his lifelong friend. Lawrence later studied at the Sorbonne in Paris before setting off on a series of adventures in Brazil, Colombia and the Caribbean, before returning to Europe, where he worked as a translator for Unesco, later training to be a simultaneous interperter. He now lives with his son August in the historical quarter of Nice, France, having recently published an historical guide to the city's historical quarter, "Old Nice's Changing Heart".
