| Tracey Lien is a Sydney-based journalist, online producer, and writer. She is a senior reporter at Polygon and a regular contributor to HYPER and PC PowerPlay. She has written for The Australian Associated Press, The Sun Herald, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, GamesIndustry.biz, Gamasutra, NineMSN, Kotaku AU, IGN AU, Atomic, Games.On.Net, TimeOut Sydney, MANIA, K-Zone, D-Mag, and a few other publications that don’t immediately come to mind. She is an online producer at Fairfax and has reported for ABC TV’s Good Game, was associate editor of Kotaku Australia, researched for Southern Star Entertainment, and served as news editor, arts editor, and listings editor at various publications and websites. In 2010 she was the recipient of the Walkley Foundation’s Media Super Student Journalist of the Year award for her investigative article, The Rise and Fallout of Red Ant. In 2012 she won the IT Journalism Award for Best Gaming Journalist, and was the first videogame journalist to ever win the overall Best Journalist category. She definitely used the word 'journalist' far too many times in that last sentence. For these achievements, she did not receive a cash prize, which disappointed her parents. |
