Tara Brown Biography – Tara Brown Wiki
Tara Brown is an Australian television presenter and reporter. She was born in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. After graduation, she joined Channel Seven’s Sydney newsroom as an assistant to the chief-of-staff. In 1991, Brown moved to WIN Television in Wollongong and undertook a cadetship in journalism.
In 1992 she joined the Nine Network and started working on compiling features including “Australian Agenda” reports for the Nine Network’s late news programme Nightline. In 1993 she left Nightline and started reporting on A Current Affair. Her most memorable stories for A Current Affair include a series of reports on a group of Australian soldiers returning to Vietnam on the 20th anniversary of the fall of Saigon; uncovering a tyre dumping racket that posed a major environmental threat; and a feature story on refugees in Bei Hai in southern China.
In 2001, she became a reporter on the Nine Network’s 60 Minutes programme. The first person Brown ever interviewed on 60 Minutes was Mel Gibson. She was previously a fill-in presenter for Nine Sunday AM News.
In April 2016, Tara Brown and eight other people (including three other staff members of the Nine Network, David Ballment, Stephen Rice, and Ben Williamson) were arrested on allegations of child abduction in Lebanon. Lebanese judicial sources told The Guardian that the group was to be charged with “armed abduction, purveying threats and physical harm” – crimes which carry sentences of twenty years imprisonment with hard labor. She was released from custody only after the Nine Network paid a substantial monetary settlement to the father of the children the subject of the attempted abduction.
