Thursday 18 June 2026

From June, the Australian Dictionary of Biography will feature in a regular weekly segment on ABC Radio Canberra. 

Every Wednesday afternoon around 3.15pm, someone from the Dictionary team will be joining host Georgia Stynes on the Canberra Drive show to play a game of 'Who Am I?' They will share three clues with listeners and then tell them all about the person they have chosen to spotlight that week. Some names might be familiar, but others may not. All will be drawn from the almost 14,000 people included in the ADB.

Listen to the first episode with online and outreach manager, Dr Michelle Staff (from ~15 minutes in) via ABC Listen.
