About Our Guest
Over the past 40yrs I have worked in many different industries including aged care, WH&S, education and real estate. I have worked in outback mines, outback Local Government from far western Qld to outback NSW. Marrying an Indigenous man, I have researched Indigenous genealogy and local history.
To many, I have lived a life of little financial reward but to me it is a life rich in human connections and discovering our rich history.
My Birth Year
In each episode of My Birth Year, we are going to choose a year between 1945 and 1999 and highlight some the big news events from that year as well as remembering some of the biggest selling songs, most popular movies and, for episodes from 1956 onwards, the most popular TV shows.
In the second part of each episode, we’ll introduce a guest - someone who was born in our feature year. We’ll talk about their memories of their childhood, their youth and their adult years.
These are real stories about real people. We can't wait to share them with you!
