Jennifer
Hansen
Journalist/aspiring actor
AFTER 20 years with Channel 10 - most recently as newsreader - Jen is diversifying as a speaker, MC, media trainer and stage actor. She sums up the change this way: "1 used to be a battery hen, but now I'm a free-range chicken".
Jen is in Sally McLean's play, Chasing Pegasus, being staged at Gasworks Arts Park, Albert Park, from October 3 to 7 as part of Melbourne Fringe Festival. She is married to Neighbours star Alan Fletcher and they have two children - Veronica, 11, and Tom, 8.
