"Olivia Newton-John was a versatile artist with an appeal that spanned
generations, and who played an important role in claiming a space for
Australian popular culture on the world stage.

She was the rare performer whose career flourished through different phases,
and who found success exploring many facets of her talent.

Born in Cambridge in 1948, Newton-John moved to Melbourne at age 6 (becoming
one of a myriad of non-Australian celebrities wholeheartedly claimed by this
country).

In her teens she started to build up her profile on the local performing
circuits, also appearing on pop music television program The Go!! Show."
