Gerald Ganglbauer was born in Graz, Austria in 1958 he is an Austrian Australian publisher. In 1984 he started the independent press Gangan with his then wife Petra Ganglbauer, in 1989 Gerald Ganglbauer began collecting Australian short stories, experimental prose, and poetry.
Back then Australian literature was largely unknown in German speaking countries, and he had the ambition to change that with Gangaroo (a coinage of the words Ganglbauer and kangaroo), the imprint of now Sydney based small press.

Together with Bernard Cohen, Rudi Krausmann and Michael Wilding, Ganglbauer created The OZlit Collection in three volumes: Vol. 1: Air Mail from Down Under (Short Stories, translated into German), Vol. 2: Malevolent Fiction, was not published in print, but online (in parts) and Vol. 3: Made in Australia (Poetry, bilingual English/German). In 1996 Ganglbauer launched the international online magazine Gangway. Gangan published books in print for ten years, and then online after 1996.
