Andrew P Street is an Adelaide-based, Sydney-built journalist, columnist, author, editor and broadcaster. Disappointingly, he looks much like the picture to the right.
He’s spent much of the last few decades writing about politics, music, popular culture, film, social justice, science, travel and whatever else he gets distracted by and subsequently obsessed about.
He is also the author of the bestselling The Short and Excruciatingly Embarrassing Reign of Captain Abbott (Allen & Unwin, 2015), described by Richard King at The Australian as “A piece of political portraiture shot through with an antic, larrikin spirit”, and by the Sydney Morning Herald’s Anson Cameron as “A well-researched call of bullshit… bravely written with the cliff of defamation at the author’s back”.
Reset: A New Public Agenda for the Arts offered two days and nights of thinking and discussion about how the arts and cultural sector could work to break out of the current impasse through a radical reorganisation of cultural practice and policy.
