Rugadh agus thogadh Graham Cooper ann an ear-thuath na h-Alba. Cheumnaich e a Oilthigh Obar Dethain mar dhotair agus thainig e gu bhith na dhotair lannsa. Ged a chaidh a' mhor chuid den obair aige a dheanamh ann an Alba, chuir e seachad uine ann an Eirinn a Tuath, Sasainn agus Nepal.
An deidh dha a dhreuchd a leigeil dheth, thoisich e Gaidhlig ionnsachadh. Rinn e clasaichean oidhche ann an Obar Dhethain agus e cursa no dha aig Sabhal Mor Ostaig.
Tha e an-diugh a' fuireach ann an Siorrachd Obar Dhethain far a bheil e fhathast a' gabhail pairt ann an tachartasan Club Gaidhlig.
Graham was born and brought up in the North East of Scotland and graduated from the University of Aberdeen in medicine, embarking on a surgical career. Although most of his work was done in Scotland, he spent time in Northern Ireland, England and Nepal.
After retiring, he began learning Gaelic at local night classes and consequently enrolled in some courses at Sabhal Mor Ostaig. He lives in rural Aberdeenshire now where he still participates in local Gaelic classes and events.
