Honestly, Jan Fran doesn’t really know what she is. She's a Walkley-award winning journalist, a TV Presenter, a social commentator, a keynote speaker, an emcee, and she makes videos on the internet that go viral..ish. (There's probably a better way to say that last part but I can't think what it might be).

She currently hosts the ABC's Question Everything and is also known for presenting Channel 10's The Project and SBS's The Feed. 

Unfortunately, Jan Fran has opinions about everything, especially media and politics. She has spent years trying to harness this terrible affliction into something constructive hence the viral...ish internet videos.   

Jan is an in-demand interviewer who regularly hosts in-conversations and panel discussions with writers and thinkers at various festivals, including Sydney Writers Festival, Melbourne Writers Festival, All About Women, Antidote Festival, Broadside, Byron Bay Writer's Festival and more.  

Apparently, she's writing the next great Australian essay collection. No further questions. 

She's an ambassador for Plan International Australia and the Whitlam Institute’s What Matters? Writing competition. 

Jan has shot and produced documentaries from all over the world and has lived in Lebanon, France, Bangladesh and Uganda. She speaks three languages. 

Jan can be found on Instagram, TikTok and Bluesky. I'm sure there'll be others as these platforms continue to devolve/spy on us.

Cheerio, 

JF
