John Cornell - Biography
John Cornell (born 2 February 1941) is an Australian film producer, writer, actor, and businessman who was born in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. He is best known for his role as "Strop" in The Paul Hogan Show, and he was instrumental in the introduction of World Series Cricket in 1977.
Cornell was born in Kalgoorlie, but grew up in Bunbury in Western Australia. He states that he was considered a "ratbag" at school, but he topped the class in both English and economics at Bunbury High.
Cornell married Australian television personality Delvene Delaney in 1977, and they have two children: Allira and Liana. He was married twice before, and has a daughter from one of those marriages (Melissa, born in 1970).
Cornell suffers from Parkinson's disease and has undergone deep brain stimulation to alleviate the symptoms. The disease had rendered Cornell largely immobile, however treatment by Professor Peter Silburn at St Andrew's War Memorial Hospital in Brisbane enabled him to "enjoy 2km walks with his wife".
