The appointment took effect immediately. Mr Pauling, who was previously Deputy Chairperson, replaces Ms Karen Brown who has completed a term of three years as Chairperson. Karen needs more time to pursue private interests. Mr Pauling has made an enormous contribution to the legal and cultural development of the Northern Territory. A member of the Darwin Community since March 1970, Mr Pauling has a distinguished record of over thirty years of service to the legal profession of the Northern Territory, including three and a half years as a Magistrate, co-founding the Northern Territory Bar and 19 years as Solicitor General of the Northern Territory. Mr Pauling was made a Queen’s Counsel (QC) in 1984 and in 2008 was invested as an Officer of the Order of Australia for his significant services to the Northern Territory. In September 2007, he was appointed Administrator of the Northern Territory, holding office until October 2011. Mr Pauling is a strong advocate for the growth of arts and culture in Darwin and is well known across the sector for his active and on-going contribution as curator, patron, performer and director. He was the founding chair of Darwin Entertainment Centre (then DPAC) serving for ten years until the Studio Theatre was complete and three years as Chair of MAGNT where he is currently a guest curator Mr Pauling praised the service given by Karen Brown. “Karen put her heart and soul into Darwin Festival and made a terrific contribution of which she should be very proud” Ms Brown remains on the Darwin Festival Board
