Judy Bailey

Newsreader and ‘mother of the nation' Judy Bailey fell for broadcasting while studying journalism in Wellington. After graduating she joined the NZ Broadcasting Corporation as a TV/radio reporter. In 1980 Bailey became a newsreader on regional magazine show Top Half, then co-hosted it with John Hawkesby. In 1986 she transferred to the revamped 6pm Network News, initially presenting with Neil Billington, then kicking off a 15-year collaboration with journalist Richard Long.

I had set my heart on a job with the NZBC and nothing less would do. I can be extraordinarily stubborn.
