Learn more about the history of our national broadcaster and how it has interpreted and reflected almost every aspect of Australian life.What did it mean to be an ABC listener in the 1930s, or a television viewer in the 1970s? What were Australians expecting when they tuned into Auntie, whether in the living room or at the beach, in the city or the bush?
