1951

Christopher Pearson (28 August 1951 – 7 June 2013) was an Australian journalist and conservative commentator who wrote for national broadsheet The Australian and who for many years before had edited a monthly cultural magazine, The Adelaide Review.

Born in Sydney on 28 August 1951, Pearson spent most of his life in Adelaide.

He received a Bachelor of Arts with Honours (third-class) from Flinders University as well as a Graduate Diploma in Education from the University of Adelaide.

The topic of his honours thesis was Australian author Patrick White.

He had left-wing leanings as a student, before becoming an admirer of the social democratic politics of Bob Hawke and Paul Keating.

Pearson wrote occasional articles for a wide range of newspapers, including The Herald, The Age, and The Courier-Mail, through the 1980s and 1990s.

As proprietor of the Adelaide Review, he bought the name of the Wakefield Press from the South Australian government and operated the company from 1986 to 1988.

1996

He then moved to the right, voting for John Howard in 1996.

He served as a speechwriter to Howard, who served as Prime Minister of Australia from 1996 to 2007, and was a close friend and mentor to another Prime Minister, Tony Abbott (2013–2015), whose books he also edited.

His most significant work is an essay, "The ambiguous business of coming out" (1996), which was published in Peter Coleman's collection called Double Take.

1997

He was a regular columnist for the Australian Financial Review between 1997 and 2001, before moving to the Weekend Australian.
