Dawn Fraser is one of Australia's most recognised and best-loved sportswomen. She has held our attention (and the headlines) for almost half a century, having burst onto the scene as a gutsy and talented swimmer in the 1950s. A multiple gold medal winner over three consecutive Olympics, a constant record-breaker, a rebel, a campaigner, National Living Treasure, Swimmer of the Century, international sports ambassador, Australian icon, publican and politician, Dawn has lived a remarkable life and done most of it the hard way.
A story of both the athlete and the woman, 'Dawn: One Hell Of A Life' tells the full account of her glittering swimming career and beyond. Dawn tells in her own words what is and isn't behind the rumours that have swirled around her from the beginning, and shines a spotlight on many other aspects of her life. Strong, warm-hearted and unique, Dawn has come through it all and had one hell of a life along the way.
Throughout, her support and love of sport have earned her enduring friendships and admiration, and the pride and affection of a nation when she appeared at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. 'Dawn: One Hell Of A Life' tells why she holds that special place in the hearts of so many Australians.
