Francis was brought up in the Australian bush and lived a life very close to nature. Whenhe was seven, he moved to a village of 300 people, which he thought was a city. He wasn'tused to seeing groups of more than ten. He grew up wanting to be white and said: “That was sad but it…gives me compassion for other people.”Firebrace spent his twenties on the land hunting rabbits and kangaroos, and listening to his elders telling the stories that are passed down through generations. When he was 28, he moved to Canberra and got into filmmaking. He won an international film award, which changed his life 180 degrees.

He now performs on television, at Sydney's Opera House, and at festivals across the globe.Firebrace says he is a “travelling storyteller” and gets his stories by swapping them with other tribal people.“All my stories are selected for their meanings and positive messages. The only way to make change is to go out there and give people another view of life. That'swhat I do through my stories, my paintings and my philosophy,” he said.
福尔布雷斯现在在悉尼歌剧院表演,参与全世界的节庆表演。福尔布雷斯说他自己是一个“旅行说书人”,把他的故事与其他部落的人分享,也换取其他部落的故事。“我所有的故事都是根据它们的意思挑选出来的,都具有积极意义。改变的唯一方法是给出去,给人们另一种人生观。这就是我的故事、绘画和哲学想要表达的内容,“福尔布雷斯说。
