The Australian Indigenous Who's Who is the only authoritative publication of its kind in Australia, offering access to icons from all walks of life! This familiar volume is recognised as the standard reference source of contemporary Indigenous Australians biographies, profiling individuals in such fields as law, education, politics, entertainment, business, and more. Documenting the achievement of our First Peoples from a wide variety of occupations and professions, this Who's Who records the diversity of culture in Australians. These biographies are organised alphabetically and provide detailed information on the accomplishments of notable Australians, from coast to coast. All who are interested in the achievements of this country's most influential Indigenous citizens and their significant contributions to the country and the world beyond should acquire this reference title. Based on submissions and research, the detailed entries provide information such as: -date and place of birth -family history -education -career information -career-related and volunteer affiliations ·creative works -honours -memberships -languages -clubs and recreation -contact information. While editors do make selections and edit entries to a standard, the biographies truly belong to the people listed, and reflect what they, themselves, consider to be important in their lives. Biographees are given an opportunity to update their entries through direct communication. We also invite prominent, as-yet unlisted individuals to complete questionnaires from which new biographies are created. Further, editors regularly consult reliable sources of information presented by government, business, academia, associations, and reputable media outlets, in order to update existing biographies or to create new ones.
