She has also worked on the social and cultural history of liquor legislation in mid-twentieth century New South Wales.

Alison Vincent (Independent scholar ) Dr Alison Vincent is a cultural historian with qualifications in both science (food technology) and history (colonial Australia). Until 2022 she was an Adjunct Senior Lecturer at the Creative Arts Research Training Academy (CARTA) at Central Queensland University, Australia. Alison is a founding member and co-convener of the Australian Food History Network, which supports academic research into historical aspects of the cultivation, production, consumption and distribution of food and beverages in and beyond Australia. She is a student of Australia’s food culture, with research interests including the social history of dining out, the history of cookery books and writing about food in Australia, and the influences on Australian food ways.
