Jolanta Hildebrandt
Jolanta was born in Poland and grew up in the capital city of Warsaw. She was a young enthusiast of the 1981 “underground theatre”, which provided a creative outlet in the ever-increasing political unrest in Poland. Disheartened by the circumstances, she left her mother country with a small bag containing her handwritten volumes of poems, one towel, a handmade dress and a pair of jeans in search of new horizons.
Upon arriving in Australia, Jolanta began her studies at the University of Sydney in the Faculty of Archaeology and Heritage Studies. After graduating, she worked as an archaeologist in Sydney and Russia. In later years, after completing her master’s degree, Jolanta began working as a teacher and adult educator.
Jolanta’s passion for poetry continues and she has written and presented a wide selection of poems at Festivals and readings.
