developed into one of the countries most innovative film and
television 'behind the scenes' talents.
As a trailblazer, innovator, woman in a man's world and empowering
comic philosopher using sport, politics, and feel good life issues
as a base, Libbi is in demand as an MC, after dinner speaker,
conference facilitator, debater and event content designer.
Libbi leapt to national prominence through her creation of
Australia's iconic Elle McFeast, the fearless wild child girl
adventurer with unprecedented access to world sport, politics and
social issues. Since 2001, when Libbi went back to school to study
scriptwriting, her stand up performance work has refined,
personalised and extended.

her spin on love and relationships. In 2001, Libbi emerged in front
of the cameras to reveal her humanity, thought and self depreciating
humor in The Marie Claire What Women Want series for Network 10 in
2001/2002. Her speeches on body image, self esteem, sisterhood and
friendship were innovating, honest and refreshing television.
In 2003 Libbi performed at the Opera House in her one woman show
