While listening to the wonderful interviews Alex Pierce has been conducting with many of our past judges and Awards organisers over at the Aurealis Awards: Behind the Curtain podcast, we realised that we never published the full* list of past judges we compiled a couple of years ago, and we thought we should rectify that omission!
Here, in the 30th year of the Awards, is the most complete list we could collate.
*While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, we were at the mercy of some old second-hand accounts and the Internet Archive to populate many of the early years. Many thanks to Alisa Krasnostein for her contributions to filling in some gaps.
Please let us know if you have data that could help ensure the most complete record or with corrections on name spellings etc!
