Tania Mace
I am a freelance historian working in Auckland. I studied at Auckland University where I received a BA majoring in history and philosophy in 1993 and an MA (Hons) in history in 1998. Since then I have been working as a freelance historian mainly in the heritage field. I have worked for conservation architects, archaeologists, local bodies, government departments, educational providers and private individuals and have researched and written histories of numerous buildings, places and sites for a large number of reports including conservation plans, archaeological reports, thematic heritage reports, heritage assessments and heritage walks. I have also written two books (see below).
