Hamilton-based Susan Murray has just retired after 21 years of co-hosting RNZ show Country Life
She recently won the 2019 Ravensdown Agricultural Communicator of the year award at the Mystery Creek Fieldays.
Susan says she accidentally started her radio career splicing tapes and timing commercials with an after-school job at King Country Radio in Taumarunui.
Since then, radio news reporting or feature programme-making has been her main interest. She is shepherd to 20 ewes, one young ram lamb and one old ewe at Sheep Heaven, a lifestyle block at Ngahinapouri in Waikato.
