Unapologetically Ita

About this book

A compelling and enlightening book by our most celebrated journalist, Ita Buttrose. In her eighties she’s as passionate as ever about the many causes important to her, the future of Australia, and living meaningfully to the very end of our lives.

Ita Buttrose has been a defining force in shaping Australia’s cultural and social landscape for more than six decades. Now in her eighties, Ita is as passionate as ever about the many causes important to her, the future of Australia, and living meaningfully to the very end of our lives. In this captivating book Ita reflects on everything from sex to leadership with her characteristic wit, compassion and razor-sharp intellect.
 
Fresh from the toughest job in Australian media, Chair of the ABC, Ita frankly discusses her time at the place she calls ‘an incredibly special Australian institution’. She also looks at the strengths and challenges of Australian society, and has some inspiring words on how to succeed in the workplace. Closer to home, Ita opens up on motherhood, menopause, health curveballs, and what life is like for an older person.
 
Ita is someone with a unique perspective, a rare depth of knowledge of our country and its people. Unafraid to share her opinions, she proves in Unapologetically Ita that her voice is more compelling and essential than ever.
