Hermoine Macura

Hermoine Macura is the Author of the book “Faces of the Middle East” and the first Australian female English speaking TV news anchor in the Arab world.

She has also hosted hundreds of other shows, including the three-hour live launch of the tallest tower in the world and more recently “Pride of the Nation” featured on Fox TV Middle East.

Reaching audiences of up to 80 Million, Hermoine was one of the main anchors on Dubai One TV's Emirates News and her portfolio includes the delivery of live-to-air news bulletins, frequently whilst being in the midst of breaking stories both locally and across the Middle East.

In 2014, Hermoine’s love for the Arab people led her into war-torn Iraq, where she set up the House of Rest – a privately funded, non-political and non-governmental resource center run by women for women survivors of sex slavery, war, violence and oppression.
