Special thanks to John Easterling, Chloe Lattanzi, Paul Hogan and Delta Goodrem for their beautiful tribute to Olivia Newton-John – a true friend of G’Day USA who is truly missed.

Arthur Sinodinos AO, Australian Ambassador to the U.S., Susan Templeman MP, Special Envoy for the Arts, & Amb. Jane Duke, Consul-General, Los Angeles. Thank you for tirelessly championing the arts!
