[Watch] Tracey Lee Holmes: A Life Through Sport

Watch now as Tracey Lee Holmes, a pioneering voice in Australian broadcasting, joins host Shelley Ware in an intimate and fearless discussion reflecting on her trailblazing career and a remarkable life in sport.

Tracey Lee Holmes is a sports journalist and broadcaster, as well as one of the first female hosts of a national sports program and an advocate for gender equality in sport. 

Now, in celebration of her new book The Eye of the Dragonfly: My Life Seeing the World Through Sport, she reflects on the way sport can highlight the nobility of the human spirit or ruthlessly reveal its flaws – and the lessons that have seen her through an extraordinary career reporting it all.
  
Share in the thrilling stories of athletes in exultation and defeat, and as Holmes sheds light on the larger forces of money, power and discrimination which shape the games to which she has devoted much of her life.
