Public speaking & mc'ing
According to family legend, when I was a toddler at my aunt's wedding I figured out that the bride was the centre of attention and spent the whole time trying to sit in her lap. I took drama through school and have always been a centre-stage sort of person, with years of public speaking experience.
My years of public speaking experience ranges from being the Book Critic guest on Jesse Mulligan’s RNZ show to chairing various literary festival events.
I am available to speak to a wide variety of audiences, on air and in person, and to MC events.

“Elizabeth Heritage is a fount of knowledge on many matters literary, pertaining particularly to the local scene. She is an accomplished moderator of live sessions, and was very helpful focusing my content planning for my next festival. ”
“Elizabeth is a confident, intelligent and witty speaker, who can speak knowledgeably on a range of subjects. She has the stage presence to hold an audience on her own, but can also be a valuable, quick-thinking member of a panel discussion.”
“Elizabeth has excellent skills in presenting material in accessible and engaging ways. I’ve always been impressed by her clarity and style of presentation.”
