Clare Martin is the first female AND Labor Chief Minister of the Northern Territory

One of ten children born in Sydney’s north, she made her way to Darwin for a six month stint working for the ABC, making her way from radio to TV and back again. 

Meeting her other half on the tennis courts at Mindil Beach, she soon became a mum to a pigeon pair - her son and daughter.

Clare talks bout the trials and tribulations of being a mum while working in the biggest job in politics but also how hard it was to wind down when that chapter came to an end. But no matter what she ends up doing, she’s always calling the Territory home.
