Jane Bowron is a freelance journalist based in Christchurch. Television critic for The Dominion Post and columnist for The Dominion Post and The Press, she has been a TV reviewer for The Evening Post, The Sunday Star-Times, National Radio's Nine to Noon, Radio Live and Newstalk ZB, a media commentator for Newstalk ZB and a feature writer for The Sunday Star-Times.
Bowron hits just the right note, with wry observational humor and
insight. She doesn't big-note emotionally but the pain,
bewilderment, and determination to keep on going are all there."
—Peter Wells, author, Lucky Bastard
"Bowron has given us an intelligent, articulate and moving record
of one of the major events in our history." —Paul Little, North and
South
"Quite simply, it is a remarkable contemporary record of a major
event in this country's history." —Abbie Jury, Waikato Times
Tomorrow's Schools Today
"Obligatory reading . . . Bowron was uniquely placed, not simply
because she was living in the central city, but also because she
had just the journalistic eye you wanted at such a time: game
(setting forth on her bicycle), wry, witty, and wonderfully
observant, immune to bullshit and platitudes, conveying the fullest
sense of life . . . Columnist of the year at next year's media
awards? [Bowron] better be." —Guy Somerset, Listener
