Show & Tell Promotions is a booking agency for speakers and presenters working in the broad field of children's literature and media.
It had its beginnings in 1984 in the Michael Connor Literary Agency. In addition to his agency work, Michael saw a need to coordinate and pay the authors who visited schools and other literary events. As the agency grew, Michael enlisted the help of author and friend Beryl Shaw in its running.
On moving to Sydney in 1986/1987, Michael sold his agency to Melbourne specialist children's bookseller, Albert Ullin. On a suggestion from Judith Crabtree, Albert renamed the agency Show & Tell Promotions and illustrator Ann James generously developed the happy Show & Tell logo.
Now under the care of Bronwen Bennett, Show and Tell has successfully represented authors, illustrators, storytellers, poets and literary consultants as speakers at schools, libraries, conferences and festivals.
2006 was a big year for Show & Tell. It opened its Brisbane office, under the care of Helen Bain, to service the needs of Queensland and northern New South Wales and it established its online bookshop.
This was followed in 2007 with a new Perth office, under the careful eye of Jan Kaye, to meets the needs of Western Australia.
