- Society & Culture
Episode 5 of the Blank Canvas with Deborra-Lee Furness.
A graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York, Deborra-lee launches herself from one creative project to the next with relentless enthusiasm and charm. She acts, directs, paints, sculpts and is passionate about design.
An internationally acclaimed actress who’s worked extensively on stage and screen - including award winning turns in the movies WAITING, JINDABYNE, ANGEL BABY and SHAME - considered an Australian classic, for which she won Best Actress at the Seattle International Film Festival, Film Critics Australia Award and the Variety award. She was also the recipient of the best actress at the San Sebastian film festival.
Television credits include the AFI nominated role in SEA CHANGE, HALIFAX FP and CORELLI, where she met her future husband, Hugh Jackman.
Deborra-lee is equally passionate about her humanitarian work. She is founder of ADOPT CHANGE in Australia, which hosts Adoption Awareness month every year and HOPELAND which is based out of New York. Both organisations work toward providing safety, stability and permanency for vulnerable children. She has been honoured with many awards, most notably the Angel in Adoption, from the Congressional Coalition on Adoption in Washington DC, was named NSW Australian of the year in 2015 and more recently was the recipient of United Nations Women for Peace Leadership Award.
