From a beginning in media working on the production side of Formula One, to his first-ever interview subject, seven-time World Champion Michael Schumacher, Mark’s big break in Australia came as part of Network Ten’s News and Sport teams.
AFL, Motorsport, Cricket, Golf plus Commonwealth and Winter Olympic Games were just a few of the events Howard featured on during his time with Ten.
