  • Summary

  • Sally Dowling SC is the first woman to be appointed Director of Public Prosecutions for New South Wales.

    Sally is only the fourth person to hold this role, and one of only a few female DPPs in Australia. Previously she served as a Crown Prosecutor and was appointed Senior Counsel in 2013. In that role she appeared as lead counsel in more than 300 appeals in the High Court and the New South Wales Court of Criminal Appeal.

    Two years into her 10-year term, she sits down with Sandra to talk about the impact of sexual harassment on her career, the role of the media – and social media - in justice, her focus on the First Nations community, and why managing the mental health of her prosecutors is key.

    And what advice does she have for young lawyers just starting out?
