What do you find beautiful?
Elizabeth Woods posed this question to hundreds of Hobartians in her search for delightful people and their ideas. The product of this search was a public event where eighteen of Hobart's most beautiful thinkers competed for the title of The Most Beautiful Person of 2011. The contestants reflected, recited, sang, danced, cooked and undressed for a packed house, to convince the judges that they were the most charming, sincere, awe-inspiring and provocative on the day.
