Sue-Ann Post is an Australian comedian and writer.
Self described as “Australia’s favourite six-foot, lesbian, ex-Mormon, diabetic, comedian and writer”, Post has performed as a stand-up comedian internationally and throughout Australia since 1991.
Her debut stand-up comedy stage show, “A Bit of a Postscript” toured internationally and received awards at the Melbourne Fringe Arts Festival and the Wellington Arts Festival, and was adapted to become a best-selling book. Sue-Ann has also worked as a shelf stacker, housemaid, shop assistant and printer’s assistant. And one memorable winter in Melbourne she worked as a wood splitter at a woodyard for a guy named Blue.
She has written an autobiography A Bit of a Postscript (1997) and a book The Confession of an Unrepentant Lesbian Ex-Mormon which is about her journey to Salt Lake City, Utah, United States, to deliver a talk to a group of Mormon and ex-Mormon gays and lesbians.
A documentary about her journey, The Lost Tribe, aired on ABC’s Compass.
She wrote a weekly column for the Melbourne Age for three years and was nominated for the 2002 Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission’s Print Media Award. Her articles have also appeared in the West Australian, the Freethinker (UK) and Versal (The Netherlands)
