  • Exhibitions

Wendy Harmer—comedian, journalist and broadcaster, has recently launched a new women’s blog—The Hoopla. The Museum of Australian Democracy and The Hoopla teamed up last week to take the museum’s exhibition, Mrs Prime Minister—Public Image, Private Lives to a wider audience. This special online presentation features a short interview with the most recent addition to the exhibition, Therese Rein, and an opinion piece by Ms Harmer—plus images from one of the museum’s most popular exhibitions.

Wendy’s blog on the exhibition, Mrs Prime Minister (And One Bloke) can be viewed on The Hoopla.
