Hood wrote a book The Green Emerald when aged eight and was writing short plays at nine. He studied at Homebush Boys High School in Sydney until his father persuaded him to become an electrical apprentice at age 15. He joined the Eureka Youth League, a communist youth association, meeting Bill Berry and Chris Kempster, who taught him to play the guitar.
