Research
Research interests
My research interests centre on Victorian Aboriginal history, place names; Indigenous tourism, and tourism history. The synthesising theme in much of my research is 'place' - history of places, place attachment, and tourism's commodification of place. I am also an avid collector of the music and memorabilia of Ella Jane Fitzgerald.
