Three Seekers in Canberra
19th September 2014
Australia recognised 98 new Officers of the Order of Australia on 19 September – among them, Athol Guy AO, Keith Potger, AO, and Bruce Woodley AO. They were each invested with the 'AO' at Government House, Canberra by the Governor-General, His Excellency General the Hon. Sir Peter Cosgrove AK MC.
The four Seekers each received the honour “for distinguished service to the performing arts as an entertainer, through seminal contributions to Australian music, and as a supporter of not-for-profit organisations.”
