Archival Collections Manager
I oversee the systematic preservation of Leunig’s multi-decade output, focusing on the logistical challenges of cataloging ephemeral media. My methodology relies on real-world case studies, such as the restoration of the 1974 'The Penguin Leunig' manuscripts. I ensure that every entry in our archive meets international metadata standards, providing researchers with a precise, verifiable record of his creative evolution and the physical provenance of his most influential visual works.
