Michael Cronin is now forging a career as a children's author, his first novel was entitled "Against the Day" (1998) and subsequently has written two further books including "Through the Night" a sequel to his 1998 work. A noted performer on the stage he is probably best remembered as the fiery P.E. teacher Geoff 'Bullet' Baxter (almost always in his fetching tracksuit) from the long-running BBC children's TV show Grange Hill (1978).
