A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF MARGARET MAHY: Last May, we started trailing around after one of New Zealand’s most successful authors in the hope that we’d get some interesting moments in an artist’s life. Did we ever! Margaret Mahy has won countless awards, been named an Arts Icon, had a TV series of her creation go to air, turned 70 and won the premier children’s writing prize of the world, the Hans Christian Andersen Award. She also got a bit squiffy at the Prime Minister’s Awards for Literature. See it all in this two-part story.

ALSO: LUXEMBOURG GARDENS: Oliver Driver has a look around Auckland’s newest performance venue, at 14 Customs Street East. http://arthouseinc.blogspot.com/ VOTE FOR THE GREATEST NZ PAINTING: The top ten can be seen and voted for on our website: www.frontseat.co.nz.

Best regards,

The Frontseat Team TV One, Sunday Nights Repeat screening 8.00am the following Saturday
