Guest Speaker - Jane Hutcheon: Towards One Hundred Years Of Us


Jane Hutcheon is a journalist, performer and family history buff. After a career as an international correspondent and news presenter, Jane created and hosted ABCTV’s One Plus One until 2019 where she conducted more than 500 interviews with celebrities, authors, thinkers and everyday heroes.


After leaving the ABC, Jane toured Australia and New Zealand with actor Sir David Suchet, interviewing him for his theatre show. Then she wrote and performed the theatre narrative Lost in Shanghai (her mother’s story) which premiered to sell-out shows at the 2022 Sydney Festival. In 2024, the show returned for its third season touring from Darwin to Hobart. Jane writes a regular newsletter called The Juvenile Geriatric (https://janehutcheon.substack.com). She loves family stories and engaging in difficult conversations. Her latest book is Rebel Talk – the art of powerful conversations.
