Zane Grey was an American western writer, celebrity and big game-fisherman. In so many ways, his life was larger than most. But it was in Australia, in the 1930s, that he sought to make his life even larger – pursuing big game fishing, a secret love affair, and what he hoped would be a movie that would rescue his precarious financial situation. Guest: Vicki Hastrich, author of 'The last days of Zane Grey: the untold story of a Hollywood legend in Australia and his hunt for the great white shark’ (Allen&Unwin) Producer: Ann Arnold
