Mary Moody

Mary Moody has been a prolific gardening author and a former presenter on ABC TV's Gardening Australia and Channel 9's The Catch-Up. But it is her series of memoirs which have made her one of the best loved non-fiction authors in Australia. These books include Au Revoir: Running Away From Home at Fifty (2001), Last Tango in Toulouse (2003), The Long Hot Summer (2005) and finally Sweet Surrender: Love, Life and the Whole Damn Thing. She has also written a part travelogue/part history/part culinary adventure book, Lunch with Madame Murat, with photographer Vivienne Cole which she made into a film that screened on SBS earlier this year.

Mary divides her year between farming geese near Bathurst in New South Wales and her house in southern France.
