Tracey Lee Holmes

Celebrated journalist, Tracey Lee Holmes, grew up travelling the world in the back of a surfboard-laden Kombi van as the child of itinerant hippie surfers. Sport has been both a way of life and a lens through which to look at life itself.

The Eye of the Dragonfly is a completely candid, wide-ranging and passionate book that takes us to that place where sport intersects with power, politics and current world events. Tracey is a two-time winner of the prestigious International Sports Press Association (AIPS) gold award, recipient of the IOC Women and Sport Award and Sport Australia's Lifetime Achievement Award. Her book is bracing, intimate and characteristically unconventional.
