Experience the pleasure of exercising in water. About the Bill Reed was the Australian general publisher of Macmillan Australia when he conceived and wrote Water Workout, which was simultaneously published in the Australian, US and British markets under the respective Macmillan, Crown and David & Charles imprints.

Originally a well-known and widely-performed and award-winning playwright, Bill Reed began writing fiction in his late thirties. Water Workout remains his only nonfiction work.

He won four Olympic gold medals, along with one silver and one bronze, and broke 15 world records during his swimming career. At one stage he held the 400 m, 800 m and 1500 m world records at the one time. He became the youngest triple medal winner in Olympic history after competing at the age of 17 in the Melbourne Olympics and then at the age of 21 in the Rome Olympics.
