Record keeper, actress, musician
For almost 35 years, Jo Peoples has been harnessing and curating the performing arts history of South Australia.
As she retires from the Performing Arts Collection, the Festival Centre has paid homage to her by commissioning a People's Choice exhibition, while the critics and arts writers of Adelaide now have recognised her for her constant support and shared erudition through the years.
Ms Peoples, who was born in Broken Hill, is also well known throughout the performing arts community as an actress and double bassist.
