I talked about John Curtin’s briefcase for a short video on Curtin University Library’s Instagram account. It’s one of the treasures held in the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library. You can view it here.
There’s also a video from my talk about Katharine Susannah Prichard to Glen Eira Libraries, organised by Glen Eira Historical Society. It includes a reading of a ‘deleted scene’ about her childhood in Caulfield from my biography.
That Curtin briefcase story is fascinating, Nathan. I was so pleased to learn that he was a member of the ILO. What an interesting man. Denise

Thanks Denise! He was nominated the next year too and could have made it his focus but stood for parliament instead.
