This Award has been sponsored by members and associates of the Australian Historical Association, the University of Tasmania, and the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority. It commemorates the contribution to the study and writing of history in Australia by Dr Kay Daniels (1941-2001), who taught at the University of Tasmania from 1967 to 1987 and subsequently served with distinction in the Commonwealth Public Service, Canberra, in the areas of cultural policy and intellectual property rights. In accordance with her values, it is to be an international award. The Kay Daniels Award is a biennial prize recognizing outstanding original research with a bearing on Australian convict, heritage and/or early colonial history, or its international context. Award: $1 500 (at present) and citation. The Award will be presented at the 2010 AHA biennial conference, in Perth. Eligibility: Entries may be in the form of published work, either a monograph, a series of related journal articles or in the case of heritage studies, a substantial consultant's report appearing in the three years preceding the year of the award (subject to review for the second award). The Kay Daniels Award will be administered by a panel appointed by the Australian Historical Association to consist of representatives of the University of Tasmania, the Port Arthur Historical Management Authority and the AHA as appropriate. The chair will determine eligibility and the decision of the panel will be final. How to apply: Application forms should be sent to Professor Joy Damousi with one copy of the nominated work sent to each of the four judges directly (i.e. four copies altogether). Chair
