Ralph Victor Summy was born on 18 June 1929 in Allentown, Pennsylvania. He was raised in Kansas City and Houston. He attended Phillips Exeter Academy then studied economics at Harvard University. Following graduation, he worked briefly as a journalist before being drafted into the U.S. Army, serving in Germany during the Korean War. This experience contributed to the development of his anti-militarist views. After leaving the army he became involved in the anti-nuclear group, SANE, in Boston. In 1962, he emigrated to Australia, where he became a teacher and later a lecturer at the University of Queensland. He was active in anti-nuclear and anti-Vietnam War movements. He was arrested with 125 others in the 1967 Civil Liberties march. He was a founding professor of the University of Queensland's Peace and Conflict Studies. He retired in 1997 but continued to work in the field, including a term as Director of the Matsunaga Institute for Peace in Hawaii. Was married to Danish-born writer Irene Summy. He died on 27 October 2018 in Brisbane.
