Australian Geographic Author

For nearly forty years, the Australian Geographic team has been travelling this vast continent, crafting stories that celebrate the places, people, plants and animals that unite to make Australia what it is today: an ancient, wild, free place like no other on Earth, rich in biodiversity and beauty, much of it protected in parks that safeguard endemic flora and fauna, fossil sites and links to our evolutionary past.

Documenting this continent is both our passion and our purpose and supports the actions of the not-for-profit Australian Geographic Society and its conservation goals. Australian Geographic staff and freelance writers, working closely with natural history author turned Australian Geographic editor Karin Cox, have combined their skills to pass on their extensive knowledge of these 75 wonderful national parks, many illustrated with images taken by or curated by the team over decades of ‘escaping’ to Australia’s unique brand of nature.
