About

Some time ago, a friend of mine referred to me as The Celebrity Whisperer.

I thought about it for a moment, then realised how apt it actually was, having spent the last twenty years interviewing everyone from Stephen Fry to Joan Rivers, and Eddie Izzard to Ryan Eggold.

And then there is the local talent. From the Shakespearean stage and the comedy festivals to the iconic Aussie soapies, film world and sporting arena.

From my early movie reviewing days at Fairfax Media to my monthly features in DNA Magazine and involvement with the theatre, it has certainly been a colourful journey, like a movie itself – well actually more like a musical!

Whether it’s amidst the action of a London studio, backstage at a Melbourne theatre dressing room or sipping a latte in a Sydney cafe, my interview experiences have been informative, fun and rewarding.

In fact, I usually come out feeling like I’ve made a new friend. In many cases I have.

In The Horse Whisperer movie, Robert Redford had an affinity with horses. I’d like to think my interviews have a similar connection.

So thank you to all those talented people who have given me their time and words.

They all have a story to tell, which I trust you will enjoy discovering here.
