Because Words Matter

Grace Tame

Grace Tame is a survivor of child sexual abuse, a columnist, campaigner and the author of a best-selling memoir, The Ninth Life of a Diamond Miner. She is the founder and CEO of The Grace Tame Foundation (GTF), a not-for-profit organisation which creates and funds initiatives to prevent, disrupt and respond to child sexual abuse. For her contribution to legal reforms that allow child sexual abuse survivors to tell their own stories publicly, Grace was named the 2021 Australian of the Year. She lives in Hobart and regularly competes in ultramarathons.

The Berry Writers Festival acknowledges the Dharawal and Dhurga language-speaking groups who are traditional owners of this area. We acknowledge their customs and culture, which have nourished, and continue to nourish, this land. And we extend our respects to Elders, past, present, and future.
