He had the attention of the Australian Institute of Sport by the time he was sixteen, at which time he moved to Adelaide with a scholarship. His international career in individual and team pursuit took off immediately: he left for Europe for an initial tour of three months with the trips becoming longer as he grew older. He retired from the sport at nineteen because of a combination of numerous injuries and the now commonly known drug culture in the sport.Page channeled the toughness and discipline acquired as an athlete into acting, starting with a Tuesday night drama class and going on to study at the Centre for Performing Arts (now Adelaide College of the Arts) for three years. His early roles were on the Adelaide stage, where he played a variety of roles ranging from Shakespeare's Duncan in Macbeth and Faust in UR Faust to Nick in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.

While this character is comparatively minor in the books, it was conceived from the very planning stages of the TV series as being the romantic male lead against the Indiana Jones / James Bond style female lead, Phryne Fisher (played by the incomparable Essie Davis). The combination of Nathan's matinee-idol-style good looks, unique voice, and nuanced acting ensured that his character drew an immediate global fan following.Page returned to the stage in 2016 in Deborah Bruce's The Distance and Patrick Barlow's The 39 Steps.Nathan Page is also a voice actor, and has voiced numerous television commercials in Australia.He lives outside Melbourne with his long-term partner and their two young sons.
