Henry Handel Richardson Society
On this website you will find information about Henry Handel Richardson, her writings, and the Society. We hope that you will decide to join the Society.
From time to time you will find articles about HHR and/or her writings written by our members. We invite you to consider making a contribution in this way. We produce a periodic newsletter for members and both arrange and participate in events such as the annual HHR birthday celebration in Chiltern.

Our Society
The Society is a vibrant mix of readers, scholars, creative artists, family and local historians, literary tourists and others drawn together by their shared interest in HHR and her work - the only requirement to join. New members are always welcome.
The majority of our members live in Australia but one of the pleasures of belonging is the chance to interact with our overseas members.
