Steph Tisdell – The Skin I’m In
ABOUT THE SHOW
Writer, actor and one of the brightest stars of Australian comedy, Yidinji woman Steph Tisdell debuts her first young adult novel about the journey of self-discovery and teenage trials in, The Skin I’m In.
With wit, depth and authenticity, Steph Tisdell’s writing illuminates the challenges of cultural expectations and personal growth, making her debut novel a feisty, funny, and poignant must-read for young adults.
Join Steph in conversation with her mum and dad – Mark and Wendy Tisdell as she discusses her book, the joys and challenges of growing up, family dynamics, and the journey of self-discovery.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
With an ever-growing list of acting (Class of ’07, Total Control, Bump and Netflix Original Love is in the Air) and writing (Fisk, Bump, Rosehaven) accolades, Steph Tisdell’s star is on the rise.
While she’s best known – and loved – for cracking us up, an early interest in politics saw Steph enrol to study law. This sense of social justice matched with her formidable intelligence enables Steph to deliver insights that challenge cultural stereotypes in a way that is hilarious, relatable and – importantly as a proud Indigenous woman – powerful.
Steph lives in Meanjin with her pet parrots, Parky and Eddie. The Skin I’m In is her first novel.
