Sue Rosen:  Heritage Policy Analyst/Senior Research Historian

Draw on Dr Rosen's 35 years as a Sydney heritage consultant to enhance your project's chance of success. Born in Lockhart in the southern Riverina, Sue was educated at Mt Erin High School and Trinity Senior High in Wagga Wagga. She came to Sydney to attend Macquarie University in the mid 1970s where she undertook her BA Dip Ed. After a couple of years of overseas travel, she returned with a Canadian husband and American daughter to Macquarie to do her MA. Gaining employment as a historian and heritage researcher in 1988 she found her passion and vocation, becoming involved in policy and planning and design.  A decade into a consulting career, Sue expanded a commission by Pacific Power to investigate a convict stockade on the Road to Bathurst into a PhD thesis. In between there have been hundreds of studies, five books, another daughter, many enduring friendships and lots of adventures and discoveries.
