Williamson, Hibberd and the Better Angels of Our Country’s Nature Julian Meyrick , 2017 single work criticism
— Appears in: The Conversation , 22 October 2017;

'Two of Australian theatre’s most celebrated artists are scientists. Their CVs may not be immediately recognizable. One is an engineer, an ex-thermodynamics lecturer, and holds a Masters degree in social psychology. The other is a medical doctor, a onetime hospital registrar, and a specialist in clinical immunology.' (Introduction)
