Mary Lambie
Mary Lambie is a popular media personality who has been working in the industry for 20 years.
Her first jobs in journalism took her round New Zealand to work as a journalist, nine to noon and breakfast host and newsreader. Then in 1991, Mary won a scholarship to live and work in Japan. For three years she taught English and was Radio New Zealand’s Tokyo correspondent.
On her return to New Zealand, Mary hosted the BBC World Service Business programme and worked as a radio talkback host. She was asked to work on a series of television documentaries for the production house Communicado which led to joining the NBR television business programme.
At the beginning of 1997, Mary took over the role of host of TV One’s Good Morning programme. She was also appointed newsreader for Horizon TV’s Auckland newscast until its closure in 1999. In 2000/ 2001, she presented the very popular “Money Doctor” programme. Mary returned to Newstalk ZB in 2003 as Leighton Smith’s fill in, as well as continuing to host the Good Morning show until early 2004 when the show relocated to Wellington.
Mary has been a Woman's Weekly Columnist where she waxed lyrical about everything to do with raising kids and in 2007 wrote a great little book called “101 Quick Tips for Surviving your Kids" with Debbie Mayo-Smith.
Mary has recently bought a Subway franchise and is running every aspect of the business herself.
Mary is a popular MC but can also do keynotes on a variety of topics such as wellness, work-life balance and owning a business.
