Early Life
David was born in Dunedin, New Zealand to Margaret Arawa and Robin Irving Bain and was the oldest of four children. Soon after he was born, the family moved to Papua New Guinea, where Robin worked as a missionary teacher. The family returned to New Zealand fifteen years later (in 1988) by which time Margaret and Robin were reported as having "relationship problems". Robin Bain became the principal of Taieri Mouth Primary School, a two-teacher school about 50 kilometres down the coast from Dunedin.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Yet, haply, in some lull of life,
Some Truce of God which breaks its strife,
The worldling’s eyes shall gather dew,
Dreaming in throngful city ways
Of winter joys his boyhood knew;
And dear and early friends—the few”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
“Art is not a treasure in the past or an importation from another land, but part of the present life of all living and creating peoples.”
