Early life
[edit]Benson was born in Australia of Papua New Guinean parents. She is a Tolai woman from Rabaul[1] in the East New Britain Province in Papua New Guinea, and was born in Melbourne, Australia.[2]
Her father, Warium Benson, worked as a broadcaster for 36 years with Radio Australia, between 1975 and 2011.[3]
Career
[edit]Since starting in radio at Melbourne community broadcaster 3CR in the mid-nineties, Benson spent two and a half decades[4] working across a number of media platforms, including as a field reporter on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) television arts show, Art Nation,[5] as a producer and presenter on Radio Australia's Pacific Service[6] and presenter on 3RRR FM radio.[7]
Between 2017 and 2019, she worked as a producer on the Radio National mornings program, Life Matters.[8] In 2019, she moved across to presenting and co-producing the national visual arts program, The Art Show, on ABC Radio National.[9][10]
Between 2021 and 2023, she hosted a weekly arts show on ABC TV named Art Works,[11][12][13][14][15] with 100 episodes aired over the three seasons.
In November 2023, the ABC announced that Benson will host a new TV arts show, named The Art Of...[16][17][18] which began airing in June 2024. [19]
Impact and Contributions
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Namila_Benson_Artworks.jpg/220px-Namila_Benson_Artworks.jpg)
Benson hosted 100 episodes of the ABC Television show Art Works across three seasons (2021, 2022 & 2023). Art Works aired on ABC TV and ABC TV Plus, and continues to be viewable on ABC iView.[20] Through her media presence, Benson has had a profound impact on how difficult social issues are addressed in Australia. She uses her platform to challenge cultural norms and encourage more meaningful discussions. Benson has been vocal about the need for Australians to engage in difficult conversations. In an interview with The Guardian, she stated, "A big part of our culture is denialism. We just don't know how to have difficult, open and honest conversations".[21] This philosophy underpins much of her work and public appearances, where she advocates for greater honesty and openness in discussing social issues.
