A dinner party conversation lately got onto comparing the media, particularly current affairs, of 15-20 years ago to the present. Anyway the question was asked about HUW EVANS, who was the presenter of ABC Radio's "PM" program, ABC TV's "Mastermind" and ABC TV's "Pressure
Point" at various times throughout the 70's and 80's. After this era we think he disappeared entirely from the media. I seem to remember years
ago hearing a rumour that he was to work for Channel Nine for a stint
but can't remember if this was right. It also rings a bell that he might have been one of our Rhodes Scholars and might therefore have gone back
to academia. Someone remarked that he was looking "a bit sick"
(literally) around the last couple of his TV years and suggested that he might have suffered from stress or some ailment or other and that this might have something to do with his getting out of the media.

I thought his current affairs stuff, both radio and tv, wasn't too bad, and certainly would have been competitive with the likes of Kerry
O'Brien and Maxine McKew.

Does anyone know what happenned to HUW EVANS?

Contrary to everyones posts, Huw is alive and well and living in Mt Irvine. Has done so for many years now.
He is a very dear friend and I still remain in touch with him on a somewhat regular basis.
We have often had and still do have political discussions and his insight is a most rewarding experience. Hope this is of some assistance. Tony White

Great to hear that Huw is alive and well ! (Thankyou Tony White). Was only thinking about past TV presenters on the ABC last night, and one of the first presenters I thought of was Huw Evans.
