At the age of just six Palmer's family was torn apart when his father left to fight in WWII and his mother died from pneumonia. He and his five siblings were put in the care of the Salvation Army for the next five years. At 22 he decided his life lay in the theatre. Palmer climbed the ladder in London, playing key backstage roles at the Royal Shakespeare Company and successful commercial productions including Auntie Mame, Hamlet, and Oh What a Lovely War. His career took him from London's West End and New York's Broadway, to off-beat destinations such as Iceland and Sweden, before finally returning to Australia.
