Prior to joining the School of English, Journalism and European Languages, Kate was a media producer working across radio, television and the internet. She spent seven years at the ABC producing everything from radio features to multi-camera events and television documentaries. She began her career as a science journalist working on The Science Show (ABC Radio National) and Quantum (ABC-TV).

Kate is passionate about documentary (in whatever form). Her PhD thesis ‘Beyond the Frame: A Study in Observational Documentary’ looks at the practices of documentary production and the relationship between filmmakers and their subjects. She continues to be actively involved in documentary production for both radio and television.

Kate has undergraduate degrees in Science (Sydney University) and philosophy (UNE) and various industry qualifications.
