The Modern Woman's Anthology is a collaboration of stories by prominent Australian women who have penned their musings on womanhood to raise vital funds for mental health.

It brings together a unique collection of their stories, musings and memoirs and all proceeds from the sale will be donated to the Black Dog Institute.

Contributing writers include: Olympian Cathy Freeman, Media Commentator and Doctor Dr Cindy Pan, Australian Local Hero Ronni Kahn and Chairman and Executive Director of Sherman Contemporary Art Foundation Dr. Gene Sherman to name a few.

All of the female writers vary in age, background and ethnicity and the pieces in the anthology range from a simple anecdote to a more personal story about the loss of a family member – some are touching, some reflective and others are just plain funny.

Each story reveals something about their commonality – womanhood.

The theme of The Modern Woman’s Anthology 2010 is universal: Woman in the Modern World.
