Last Thursday night we went to our fifth Seymour Biography Lecture at the National Library of Australia. We missed the last one in 2019 because we were travelling. Little did we know then that it would be three years before another one could be held. The Seymour Biography Lecture, which is one of the highlights on the Library’s calendar, is an annual lecture devoted to life-writing. It was endowed by Dr John and Dr Heather Seymour AO in 2005, and provides eminent ‘life writers’ with an opportunity to explore the business and craft of biography, autobiography or memoir.
This year’s speaker, Jacqueline Kent, was introduced by the NLA’s Director-General, Marie-Louise Ayres. She has an impressive life-writing track record, including:
- A certain style: Beatrice Davis, a literary life (2001): won National Biography Award and the Nita B. Kibble Award
- An exacting heart: The story of Hephzibah Menuhin (2008): won the Nita B. Kibble Award
- The making of Julia Gillard (2009): written before Gillard became Australia’s first female Prime Minister
- Take your best shot: The Prime Ministership of Julia Gillard (2013): covers her Prime Ministership, and her story isn’t finished yet, said Kent.
- Beyond Words: A year wit
