1 y separately published work icon Me and Germaine : A Sort of Memoir Allan Watson , South Fremantle : Round House Press , 2015 8899467 2015 single work autobiography

'Recollections and reflections, some a page long and some several pages, ranging over a number of physical locations - Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Indonesia, Korea, Jordan - and a number of them involving high-profile people, among them Olivia Newton-John, Barry Humphries, Maggie Scott, John Brack, Elizabeth Jolley, David Malouf, Germaine Greer, Barry Jones, John Button, Robert Adamson and Inga Clendinnen. Some are merely anecdotal; others touch on subjects as diverse as the history of South-East Asia, the origin of life, urban design, psychology and philosophy. There is much self-reflection on the part of the author, and many of the stories fit firmly within the "strange but true" category.'(Publication summary)

1 5 y separately published work icon Larrikin Angel : A Biography of Veronica Brady Kath Jordan , South Fremantle : Round House Press , 2009 Z1568154 2009 single work biography Admonisher of popes and politicians, feisty gladiator in many a social justice campaign, inspirational teacher and devout Catholic nun, Veronica Brady was an intriguing figure on the Australian scene in the latter part of the twentieth century. As well as covering her childhood, her decision to enter a religious order, her rise through the ranks of academia and her social activism, this authorised biography discusses Dr Brady's term on the board of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, her preparation of the biography of Judith Wright and her travels in China, among many other facets of her very full life. The author has had access to private papers and has spoken to many of her subject's acquaintances and former colleagues. (Publisher's Blurb)
