Father’s Day Breakfast

We are very pleased to offer our fathers and special friends a Father’s Day Breakfast in Dalton Hall from 7.30am - 8.30am on Friday 2 September.

 

We are fortunate to have guest speaker, Mark Baker. Mark is a former Senior Editor of The Age, Editor of The Canberra Times and Managing Editor (National) of Fairfax Media. 

 

During 13 years as a foreign correspondent for Fairfax, News Corporation and the Financial Times he had postings in China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore and Papua New Guinea. He covered the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and was wounded while reporting the civil war on Bougainville in the early 1990s. He has also served as Political Editor and Canberra Bureau Chief of The Age.

 

A former president of the Melbourne Press Club, he is now the Club's inaugural chief executive officer. His book Phillip Schuler: The Remarkable Life of one of Australia’s Greatest War Correspondents was published in July by Allen & Unwin.

 

Mark will discuss The Role and Power of the Media to Influence.
