SLJ Day 5 Activity 3

For this activity, please choose one person (a changemaker) and read all about them.
On your blog, provide us with:
  1. The name of the person
  2. A description of the work they do/have done
  3. An explanation of how they/their work has had an impact on the lives of others

For this activity I have chosen to write about Dame Julie Christie.

Dame Julie Christie is famous for bringing reality T.V to New Zealand and the rest of the world. She has created lots of T.V show concepts and has been on some as well. She has produced and directed T.V shows such as The Chair, Game Of Two Halves, Trading Places to name a few. She created the original Celebrity Treasure Island which was brought back recently and she help direct it & help the new producer. I also know this  information because I was lucky enough to meet her because she works with my Mum. 

Dame Julie Christies work has impacted lots of kiwis & the whole world, because who doesn't love to sit down and watch T.V. As I said before she brought reality T.V to New Zealand and the whole world. She was born, raised and went to school in Greymouth and is an inspiration to all West Coasters.

Dame Christie said she initially thought "long and hard" before accepting the honour.Julie Christie became a Dame Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit on Wednesday

    Hi Bridget

    This is a great post that you have done about one of our local success stories. Julie Christie is a great West Coaster.
    She have done really well for herself in the entertainment industry. She really has got a lot of shows to her credit. And she also owns her own production company which is a really big deal.
    It is great that she has been honoured for all of her hard work.

    She is a great role model for a lot of people on the West Coast to say that you can indeed be very successful coming from a small place like Greymouth.

    Great choice of person Bridget, it is nice to see you talk about a local.
    Keep up the awesome work!

    Until next time

    Allie :)

      Hi Allie, Thanks for commenting on my blog. I agree Dame Julie Christie has done lots of great things and done well for herself. I also chose to write about her because I've met her and I could ask my mum, so it was fun to write. It is also nice to keep things local that's why I chose Dame Julie Christie.
