I’ve recently read your book and was really moved by your honesty, humility, courage perseverance and sheer guts.

I have a lot of respect for this lovely lady. Her autobiography was an eye opener for me.

I first seen her in the movie Rebal with Matt Dillon I loved it after that I went searching what other movies or songs she did. She has such a beautiful and amazing voice

This is no criticism of her so I don’t want it to be seen this way. Back in the late 1970s I was young and working at a place where YTT members were performing. We were all warned not to be caught alone with Debbie. It is testament to her resilience and strength to have survived and to have conquered massive trauma. A legend of Australian show business . Bravo.

Was just now going through some old forgotten box's & found a newspaper article of her from July 1st 1992(West Australian Newspaper) tucked inside an old cookbook, as the other page has recipes on it. I love how one can just google someone and discover who they were. Fascinating. She was 35 at the time of this article. If anyone is interested in having this article, I could mail it to you. Contact me on my KZitem channel.

Excuse me!!!!!! It's a free world, and it's not your business to correct the path one chooses to gain strength for their own individual journey. Thank goodness Debra has found what she needs to survive her challenges, and that we still have her.

She was acting a role in a movie. Debra(Debbie, as we knew her) got her start, not on Young Talent Time in 1971 but much earlier in "Brian & The Juniors" out of Station HSV-Melbourne which finished in 1970. Debbie, along with Rod Kirkham, Vicki Broughton, Jane Scali, Philip Gould and Jamie Redfern were all members of the show hosted by Brian Naylor(now deceased) who later went on to read the news for Station GTV-Melbourne.

@@carmenp1296 Six members of the "Juniors" were chosen to be the original team for Young Talent Time. Debbie(now Debra) Byrne, aged 14, Jamie Redfern and Philip Gould, both also aged 14, Vicki Broughton, whose birthday in February, 1971 made her 17 years old(she was born in 1954), Rod Kirkham who was to turn 16 in October, 1971, and Jane Scali, still in Primary School at the time, was 11 years old when YTT was launched but would turn 12 during the year. It wasn't until later in 1971 that the team was expanded to 8 members with the addition of Julie Ryles(now sadly deceased) and Greg Mills, both aged 13. Mills eventually became the Music Director for the show toward the end of its 18-year run.

I was abused At boarding school. So a lack of knowledge is past. My comment is your life in Lancefield. You had a community behind you and even with your turbulent relationship people in your town backed you. You lost me at Mad when the inner diva raised its head. Support was their but you belittled. You don’t live here anymore but you left your Mark. Not for the positive. I hope you have found a positive place.

Well, she was invited to do the interview and talk about these issues. Had she been invited to talk about a recording, a production, or whatever, she would have. Debra also gives people who have also been horrifically abused hope and light at the end of what must be an incredibly long and black tunnel. She's delivering what she was asked to deliver.

Yes she was always a very positive person, when we were rehearsing or recording or on tour. Despite all of the hardships she endured behind closed doors she never spoke about it to me or any of the other team. Behind those smiling eyes, and the jokes we played on each other she was the jolliest of the eight and I never met a more positive person. It was only years later that I found out what she had endured and I was gob smacked as to how she kept so quiet about it. She was always a professional and a great carer for all of us.

That's all she has ever spoken about since her decline from fame, When she was doing well no one heard or new anything of Her abuse as a child, When it finally came out that she was a heroine addict only then did she reveal the abuse, The reason for her addiction, I have and know several people that have also suffered abuse from evil deranged human beings pain and suffering you could never imagine another human being would ever think of doing to young girls Absolutely destroying our future lives of ever being able to trust or love and be touched by another person, The only part of our exsistance that is happy and successful is in our working lives a few of us working with children that have been abused and adults that have suffered abuse as a child We to could of gone down that road of addiction but we did not Using drugs is your own choice we all have that choice and that's the path you chose to take, And long before it became apparent to people your work began to decline you were either to stoned or were hanging out for a hit and your body was in to much distress to work That's the truth of it, I am sorry that she was abused when she was so young I really am, But don't use that time in your life as your reason for your addiction, When you were really just living the glam life way back then the same as alot of up and coming young entertainers were doing in that era partying up life was fabulous drugs made it feel even more fabulous until they took over your life and destroyed it,

Sophia Ferry please never apply to do counselling or social work. You judge people on your own recovery and strengths of horrific abuse. So pleased you never went down the heroin path but everyone has their demons and ways of coping. Debra doesn’t excuse herself she tells it as it is. I believe one of her strengths is in the way she can help people who are addicted to heroin reclaim their lives. Never has she been judgemental.
