John Williamson (Author)
John Williamson is, without question, an Australian Icon. His
entertainment career spans more than fifty years, boasting sales of
over 5 million albums. His unofficial anthems, funny and tender
ballads and tributes to unsung heroes have captured the spirit of
the nation in song more than any other performer. He remains one of
the most in-demand live performers in Australia. His fiftieth
album, Honest People, was released in 2104 at the same time as his
autobiography, and in 2018 he released his fifty-first,
Butcherbird. Three songs from his popular JW's Family Album have
been made into delightful, entertaining picture books for
children.
