For Judith Anderson as a child, fresh bread was the smell of the morning. Born into a family of bakers in Warwick on Queensland’s Darling Downs, she lived for her first 18 years beside the Brown family bakery before pursuing higher education and a career which ranged from teaching, health education, and journalism to marketing, management and the performing arts.

Judith’s Earning a Crust is a unique combination of local, cultural and family history which explores the lives of the men and women who worked in the baking trade in the regional town of Warwick during the century after the town’s establishment in 1861.
