About the author

Australian Judith M Brown is a published non-fiction writer and historian.

Judith was born in Adelaide, South Australia.  Before her marriage, she travelled for twelve years working everywhere from London to the relative isolation of the Australian bush. 

She presented a weekly programme on ABS-2 television for two years and broadcast on radio 5DN for three years, researching and presenting programmes that covered a broad spectrum including current affairs, politics and history.

Her books on South Australian history are in constant use for research, and she holds a Bachelor of Arts degree with Honours in French Studies from the University of Adelaide.

Judith Brown has recently completed the manuscript for her first novel, Place of Pines, a romantic historical saga.

The novel is envisaged as a trilogy and Judith is currently researching and writing the second volume, amidst games of petanque, French-speaking luncheons, German lessons, and other cultural pursuits in Adelaide.
