Writer and broadcaster David Dale is Australia’s most respected and most entertaining commentator on popular culture. He knows how Australians shop, read, socialise, eat, travel, and amuse themselves, and he explains the national character with wit and insight.
In his articles and talks, he examines ideas, journeys, fads, foods, movies, television, the power of places and the peculiarities of people. He appears regularly on ABC radio, contributes a weekly column The Tribal Mind to The Sun-Herald and The Sunday Age and writes a daily media analysis for Fairfax at http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/blog/the-tribal-mind. David graduated from Sydney University with honours in psychology, but decided he would do less harm to the cause of mental health if he went into journalism. He has been a political reporter for The Australian, a sub-editor for General Practitioner (London), features editor of The Sun-Herald, Editor of The Bulletin, New York correspondent for The Sydney Morning Herald, and broadcaster for ABC radio 702 and radio 2GB. His many books include The Obsessive Traveller (or why I don’t steal towels from great hotels any more); An Australian in America; Essential Places (A book about ideas and how they started); The Little Book of Australia – A snapshot of who we are; The Official Liars’ Handbook; The Perfect Journey, and Soffritto – A return to Italy.
