Early life and education

Harvey was born in Adelaide. He studied acting at Sydney's National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA).[1]

Career

His first television role after graduating from NIDA was Robbie McGovern, a repatriated veteran, in The Sullivans.[1][2] Harvey quit The Sullivans in late 1980, however, as his character was in the middle of an important storyline, he agreed to work beyond his expired contract.[3] In 1981, he starred in a stage production of No Names, No Pack Drill alongside Christine Jeston at the Queensland Theatre Company.[4] In 1984, he played Errol Barr in the New Zealand feature film Constance.[5]

His major television roles include The Young Doctors as Dr. David Henderson,[6] Return to Eden as Chris Harper, E Street as Michael Sturgess,[7] and Neighbours as Rob Evans – a love interest for Joanna Hartman (Emma Harrison).[8]

Harvey has also guested in a number of television dramas, including A Country Practice in 1981 and 1989,[9][10] G.P. and Embassy in 1990,[11][12] and a 1992 episode of The Flying Doctors.[13]

In 1993, Harvey starred as Peter Walker in the ABC documentary film The Last Man Hanged, which tells the story of Ronald Ryan, the last man to be legally executed in Australia.[14]
