Daniela Zannoni was born in northern Italy and migrated to Australia when she was three years old. The idea to write her family’s story evolved through hearing her mother continually recounting the hardships she had endured.

In this session, Daniela will discuss her family’s migration journey and the consequences of her parent's decision to make Australia their new home. She will also share her process of writing and publishing migrant family history.

Copies of her book: My Mother's Memories: the successes and tragedies of an Italian migrant family will be for sale

Daniela Zannoni is a retired Italian teacher and interpreter. She has three Italian degrees — Bachelor of Arts (majoring in Italian), Bachelor of Teaching, and a Diploma of Interpreting. Daniela's passion is writing Italian migration stories. In 2021, Daniela completed a Diploma in Family History, to enhance her skills in this field.
