Stacey Morrison (née Daniels): versatile broadcaster...

Stacey Morrison [Te Arawa, Ngāi Tahu] began her TV career on What Now?, presenting a weekly cooking segment while she was still at high school. Later she joined current affairs series Marae, which helped her discover her Māori heritage, then moved to Mai Time, where she found herself at the forefront of a change in how Māori culture was portrayed on-screen. Morrison has moved between presenting and behind the scenes work, on everything from Guess Who's Coming to Dinner to SportsCafe. She is also a radio broadcaster.

In this ScreenTalk interview from 2011, Morrison talks about:

• How theatresports at school got her her first gig
• How Peter Hayden helped correct her Māori pronunciation
• Why Mai Time came along at the right time
• Why she finds the buzz of live TV so addictive
• The dream gig of co-presenting It's in the Bag
