Russel Ward Lecture with Dr Catherine Bishop

Save the date for this year's Russel Ward Lecture!

The neglected story of women in business will be the focus of this year's lecture, delivered by acclaimed historian, Dr Catherine Bishop from Macquarie University

Her lecture, "The Legend of ‘Home Duties’: Navigating Social Expectation and Economic Necessity in Australia", will uncover the realities that census takers and electoral rolls obscured, and ask what these myths of domestic passivity reveal about Australia’s past.
