Nick McKenzie is arguably Australia’s best investigative reporter, who, along with Chris Masters, authored the Ben Roberts-Smith story that unveiled the actions of the one-time war hero.

McKenzie primarily works for The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald, and has also presented major investigations for the ABC’s Four Corners program, 60 Minutes and the Australian Financial Review.

Holder of 14 Walkley Awards, McKenzie has three times been named Australian Journalist of the Year.
