In memory of Maureen Harrington:
In her own words: I was born in London, Ontario, Canada and have lived in Queensland, Australia since 1995. I obtained a Ph.D. in Sociology from University of California, Santa Barbara (1988) and am now a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Tourism, Leisure, Hotel, and Sport Management at Griffith University. My research areas are volunteerism in leisure events and sport, women’s work, leisure, and active health policy. My present research is in the area of family leisure, children’s sport, healthy lifestyles, and notions of risk. When not studying other people’s leisure, I enjoy working in my herb garden and raising German Roller canaries, which are much sought after by other breeders across Australia.
