Podcasts of My Father's Wars, created by Elaine Acworth, are now available on the QANZAC100 website. Elaine, a playwright and dramatist, was one of the State Library of Queensland’s 2015/2016 QANZAC100 Fellows, and developed these dramatic works based on her personal journey to discover the story of Bill Acworth – her father, and soldier of the two world wars. In addition to the QANZAC100 website, all five podcasts can be found on YouTube.

On 8 September 2015, Elaine spoke at State Library's Under the skin event, where she presented and discussed her research at that time, along with other QANZAC100 Fellows:
