Whatever happened to Helen Demidenko?

from All In The Mind Hosted by Australian Broadcasting Corporation

What led a 20-year-old Australian woman to pose as the descendant of Ukrainian war criminals in order to tell the story The Hand that signed the Paper? Lynne Malcolm speaks with Helen Dale, formerly Helen Demidenko – the woman at the centre of one of Australia's biggest literary hoax scandals. Ten years on and now in her early 30s, what personal insight has she gained from this life-changing experience, and how has she emerged from the furore that her deception unleashed?
