The truth is that, by the time the ’60s came around, Australia was already expanding its outlook - politically, economically, and culturally - and central to this were the events of 1956. This book debunks one of the hardiest clichés in Australian history: that the 1950s was a dull decade, when the nation seemed only interested in a quiet life, a cup of tea, and a weekend drive. 1956 the year Australia welcomed the world by Nick RichardsonĪn engrossing account of a pivotal year in Australia’s history.

I'm hoping to write a biography on Eva and would love to speak with you more about her - or anyone else who may have known of her or worked with her - she really is fascinating. (I wrote up the pages on Eva and included her in the 'featured collection' on that page.) I was so sad to hear of her passing - it was my tweet that you quoted and I'm determined to make sure she isn't forgotten. I was part of the Deakin University team and the Edward Wilson research fellow on the 'women, leadership and the media' project. I was researching Eva as part of the 'Walkley Digitisation Pilot Project' - which we're hoping will get funding to make sure that decades of great journalism is available to all of us.
Thank you so much for this wonderful article - I wrote the blurb that you saw at the “Truth, Power and a Free Press” exhibition at the Museum of Australian Democracy (Old Parliament House) in Canberra and you managed to see the first iteration - I have since had it changed to Eva's correct age at the time of winning the Walkley, which was 22, not 21 years old.
