Margaret Simons in conversation with Mary Crooks

Readings are delighted to have Margaret Simons, author of Tanya Plibersek: On Her Own Terms chatting with the Executive Director of the Victorian Women’s Trust, Mary Crooks.

This is a fascinating portrait of one of Australia’s most influential women.

Elected to federal parliament aged just twenty-eight, Tanya Plibersek has lived almost half her life in the public eye, and is the longest-serving woman in Australia’s House of Representatives. But how much do we know about what drives her, what she values, and what we can expect from her next?

Award-winning journalist Margaret Simons draws on exclusive interviews with Plibersek, her political contemporaries, family and close friends to trace the personal and political strands of this modern Australian story.
