http://www.thepunch.com.au/author-bios/tracey-linguey/ Tracey Linguey grew up in Geelong (don’t hold that against her) where she also started in journalism straight out of Newcomb High School. After starting an arts degree (as yet unfinished) while working as a cadet journo, she left the Geelong Advertiser in the ‘80s to travel, landing in Fleet Street with 20 quid and a bit of subbing behind her. Returning to Australia in 1989, Tracey was hired as a sub at The Sun News-Pictorial where she learnt to drink cheap wine – and like it. She was the first woman to be appointed chief sub at The Sun before moving to the Sunday Herald Sun as production editor then to the Herald Sun as features editor, founding editor of Sunday Magazine and assistant editor of the Herald Sun. After having a couple of kids, it was off to Adelaide where she started Adelaide Magazine and edited five books before snaring one of her favourite jobs as The Advertiser’s food and wine editor. Tracey returned to Melbourne and the Herald & Weekly Times after five years and is currently edits the Weekend section. en Copyright 2012 The Punch penberthyd@newsltd.com.au penberthyd@newsltd.com.au Sat, 26 May 2012 20:00:40 +0000 Sat, 26 May 2012 20:00:40 +0000 Politics, opinion, world news, sports news, latest news, views, Barack Obama, Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard, Nathan Rees, Malcolm Turnbull, Peter Garrett, Barnaby Joyce, Australian, federal politics, opinion polls, election, The Punch, thepunch, punch ExpressionEngine 1.6.7 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 15 http://www.thepunch.com.au/images/punch-logo-rss.png http://www.thepunch.com.au/ 144 70 Politics, political opinion, world news, sports news and the latest news and views updated live, daily on The Punch - Australia's best conversation.
