2024 August 3 Luncheon with Neil Mitchell and Lex Lasry

Come along and hear from Neil Mitchell AO being interviewed by Lex Lasry and enjoy some fine dining from Luckman Catering.

This is an event not to be missed and will sellout.

Neil has been a reporter, columnist and news executive at The Age for 16 years, worked for Time Magazine and presented documentaries and his own talkback TV program on both the Nine and Ten networks. For two years in the 1980s he was editor of the Melbourne afternoon broadsheet, The Herald. He moved to 3AW in 1987 and in 1990 took over the morning program where he remained until earlier this year.  His connection with his audience was a ratingsbonanza for 3AW right up to his retirement from that role after 34 years at the microphone

In 2007 Neil was made an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) for “service to the print, radio and television media, and to the community through a range of charitable institutions".

Neil has won 9 Quill awards for excellence in journalism and was Australia’s Graham Perkin Journalist of the Year in 2011. He is a member of the Radio Hall of Fame. He won a Walkley award in 2013.
