About Damian Christie...
Damian Christie is a Wellington-based journalist, writer and general media whore.
His chequered past includes time spent working as an entertainment lawyer, in right-wing radio, speech writing in parliament, a stint as Dr Love on 'Love Songs to Midnight', oyster farmer, shearing gang gopher, cocktail bartender, waterbed salesman…
At present however, he's pretty much narrowed it down to working as a reporter on TVNZ's Close Up programme, a regular show (every second Saturday, 1pm -4pm) on Wellington's Radio Active (why not listen on-line!), writing for various publications and the increasingly rare bit of law work thrown in for good measure.
His likes include ostensibly witty yet extremely drunken conversations in the dark corner of a bar.
He collects disapproving glances and condescending smirks. And oddly shaped stones.
He lives with a cat, which he optimstically describes as "big-boned", and the comfort of knowing that he's right more than half of the time.
