Rarriwuy Hick in Wentworth (Photo credit: Xinger Xanger).
In her seven year screen career Wentworth star Rarriwuy Hick has been nominated for several awards and has won one: but what a prize.
The Arnhem Land-raised Hick was named female actor of the year at the 2019 National Dreamtime Awards last month; Rob Collins was declared male actor of the year.
Nova Peris received the lifetime achievement award and Ashleigh Barty had the dual accolades of person of the year and female sportsperson.
The other nominees for female actor were Miranda Tapsell, Ursula Yovich and Madeleine Madden. “Just to be nominated with those girls was awesome,” Rarriwuy tells If. “It was totally unexpected; I am not used to winning.”
Founded three years ago, the awards celebrate the success and achievements of Australia’s First Nations people. Nominations were submitted by the public and the winners chosen by an expert panel.
