October General Meeting

Mike Munro's journey from monastery childhood to television stardom is one of Australian media's most compelling stories. Raised by Marist Brothers after his mother fled an abusive marriage, Munro discovered his calling when she suggested journalism at age 13. Starting as a copy boy at 17, he spent a decade in newspapers, including two transformative years in New York.
Despite twice rejecting television offers, Munro finally made the leap working with Michael Willesee. This decision launched an extraordinary career that saw him become one of the original reporters on 60 Minutes, host A Current Affair and This Is Your Life on Nine Network, then founding host of Sunday Night on Seven Network.
In recent years, Munro has focused on documentary work for the History Channel and authored his second book, The Last Bushrangers, exploring the story of his great uncles, one of whom was executed at Brisbane's Boggo Road jail in 1903. His contributions to journalism and charity were recognised in 2014 when he was made a Member of the Order of Australia.
From the personal tragedy that shaped his early years to becoming one of Australia's most respected television journalists, Munro's career spans the golden age of Australian current affairs television.
