Kylie Tennant
Kathleen Kylie Tennant AO (;〔See (Pronunciation of Kylie ). ''PronounceNames.com''〕 12 March 1912 – 28 February 1988) was an Australian novelist, playwright, short-story writer, critic, biographer and historian.
==Life and career==
Tennant was born in Manly, New South Wales; she was educated at Brighton College in Manly and Sydney University, though she left without graduating. She was a publicity officer for the Australian Broadcasting Commission, as well as working as a journalist, union organiser, reviewer (for The Sydney Morning Herald), a publisher's literary adviser and editor, and a (Commonwealth Literary Fund ) lecturer. She married L. C. Rodd in 1933; they had two children (a daughter, Benison, in 1946 and a son, John Laurence, in 1951).
Her work was known for its well-researched, realistic, yet positive portrayals of the lives of the underprivileged in Australia. In a video interview filmed in 1986, three years before her death for the Australia Council's Archival Film Series, Tennant told how she lived as the people she wrote about, travelling as an unemployed itinerant worker during the Depression years, living in Aboriginal communities and spending a short time in prison for research.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= Australian Screen )〕
Two of Tennant's novels, ''Battlers'' and ''Ride on Stranger'', set in the 1930s have been made into television mini-series.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= Imdb )〕
