Ray Martin's Favourites: The Stories Behind the Legends by Ray Martin

Ray's Favourite People is a book that brings together the most remarkable people Ray Martin met during his own hugely successful career in journalism. This is a book that offers Ray's legion of fans insight into some extraordinary people – from celebrities to ordinary folks, all with stories to tell.

The book is a collection of interviews in which Ray's introductions give readers privileged access to the "back stories", the foibles of the famous, the chase to get these interviews, the settings, and more. It's a book that gives the curious gossip from inside the world of television but it is also a book that celebrates the art of the interview as conducted by a master interviewer.

Interviewees include Sophia Loren, Lowitja O'Donoghue, Don Bradman (last interview before his death), Audrey Hepburn, Fred Hollows, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe and Harry Kewell – a real mix of old and new, Australian and international.
