JAN CHAPMAN
  Chapman's career began in 1982 as a producer for the ABC's 20-part television series Sweet and Sour, continuing with the ABC mini-series Come in Spinner.

  Chapmen then formed her own independent production company, Jan Chapman Productions. In 1991 Chapman teamed up with director Jane Campion to script and edit the television mini-series An Angel at My Table and a year later they joined forces again for The Piano, the first Australian film to win the Palm d'Or at Cannes. The Piano won 11 Australian Film Institute Awards and received eight Oscar nominations, winning three Oscars.

  Jan Chapman was awarded the Producers Guild of America's Nova Award "for the most promising motion picture producer" in 1993 and her next production was Shirley Barrett's Love Serenade. Jan scored a rare double as producer of films that have won both the Palm D'Or and Camera D'Or at Cannes when Love Serenade won the Camera d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for the best first feature film.

  In 1999 Jan produced both Holy Smoke for Jane Campion and Walk the Talk for Shirley Barrett. Her latest film as producer, Lantana, was a critical and box office success in 2001 and was the winner of seven awards at last year's Australian Film Institute Awards, including Best Film.
