Sonya Voumard is an Australian journalist and author.

Her first novel Political Animals, published in 2008, was inspired in part by her time working as a political reporter for The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. This story is part of an auto-biographical collection in progress.

Sonya also teaches literary non fiction writing at the University of Technology, Sydney where she is undertaking a doctoral degree on ‘The Power Dynamics Between Australian Journalists and their Human Subjects’.
