Catherine Walker is the most modest of success stories; retired but by no means idle. I find her happily sequestered in an early Tasmanian farmhouse in picturesque Longford. But it wasn't that long ago that she was being pulled into lead Australia's humanitarian efforts in the Solomon Islands, in Afghanistan and witnessing heartbreaking famine firsthand in North Korea as Australia's minister on the World Food Program. Catherine worked with Australia’s official aid program for twenty-two years and held senior development roles overseas, including in Timor Leste as the Chief of Donor Coordination with the United Nations and in Solomon Islands as the Development Coordinator with the Regional Assistance Mission (RAMSI). Beneath all this though is the beating heart of a modern day Georgian enthusiast with an eye for what's exquisite, valuable, and collectible. Listen to Catherine on Unpaused now.
