Distinguished and Famous people from Broome
Broome Shire's cultural stories include music, storytelling and the transmission of knowledge about Country. These connections reach from the town itself into neighbouring coastal communities and landscapes.
🎵 Jimmy Chi
Jimmy Chi (1948–2017), the Broome-born composer and playwright, created Bran Nue Dae with musical collaborators. The work brought Aboriginal stories, humour and music into an influential stage musical, later adapted for film. His childhood in Broome and subsequent schooling in Perth formed part of the background to that creative career. Chi and his collaborators received recognition including a Certificate of Commendation in the 1991 Human Rights Awards. His music and writing helped bring the region's cultural life to audiences far beyond the Kimberley.
📚 Paddy Roe
Paddy Roe was born at Roebuck Station near Broome and later established his family and the Goolarabooloo community north of the town. Entrusted with cultural responsibilities, he worked to maintain connections with Country and pass knowledge to younger generations. In 1987 he initiated the Lurujarri Heritage Trail, inviting Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal participants to walk and learn together. His storytelling is preserved in Gularabulu and Reading the Country. An OAM in 1990 recognised decades of community work. His contribution joins spoken knowledge, published stories and the act of walking Country.
🌿 Pat Torres
Pat Torres is a writer, artist, illustrator and educator with cultural and family connections to Broome and surrounding Country. Her work includes illustrations for Daisy Utemorrah's Do Not Go Around the Edges and the native-produce business Mayi Harvests. She learned about bush foods and medicinal plants from her mother, grandmother and extended family while growing up north and south of Broome. Through cultural tours and education she also shares knowledge within appropriate protocols. Her local contribution combines creative work with the careful passing on of knowledge learned through family and Country.
