Edit ProfileCareer
Wallace"s publications include Greer, Untamed Shrew (1997), The Private Don (2004), Julia Gillard (2011). Wallace can be heard on regular radio spots with 666 American Broadcasting Company Canberra and breakfast on Adelaide"s top rating talk station 5AA. Later she broke the story that she also claims sparked the resignation of Liberal Party leader Alexander Downer, allowing John Howard to regain the post and later become prime minister.
Politics
Christine Wallace"s early interest in politics began when appointed a staffer in the office of Peter Shack Member of Parliament, a Liberal member of the House of Representatives. Wallace is a member of the Canberra Press Gallery and has worked for a wide range of print and electronic media outlets there including The Australian, The Australian Financial Review, Business Review Weekly and American Broadcasting Company Television. During the 1990s, Wallace"s articles in the The Australian Financial Review were very critical of Doctor John Hewson, then leader of the opposition Liberal Party and whose economically liberal programme, "Fightback!", anticipated the political agenda of the Howard Government.
Recent journal articles include "Libertarian Nation By Stealth" (Griffith Review, 16, 2007) and "Clean, Orderly and Laminex Coloured" (Griffith Review, 19, 2008).
