Liz Cantor first made waves in Australia as a competitive surfer. Sponsored by Billabong, her surfing career took her to Fiji, Tahiti, Hawaii and Europe to compete.
Liz completed her Journalism degree in 2003. She considered studying Marine Biology, but her love for sharing stories pulled her towards a career in media. She combined a Bachelor of Communications degree with a Meteorology Course, through the Australian Bureau.
Prior to this in 2002 she’d made her on-screen acting debut in Australian feature film Blurred. A year later she appeared in Gettin Square before landing a role on television drama series Blue Water High as ‘Corin Hardy’ in 2005. Later that year she scored a spot on the Channel 7 reality television show The Mole, a show which kick-started her career with Channel 7. She competed against 12 other contestants and despite being the youngest, won.
In 2016 she gained the title 2 x Reality TV Show winner! After winning ultra HD network INSIGHT TV’s first adventure reality show. Living Stone – Botswana was screened internationally and saw Liz and husband Ryan represent Australia, surviving starvation and the wilderness of Africa, against couples from England, New Zealand, America, South Africa and The Middle East.
In 2024 career highlights include presenting the $200 Million Powerball Jackpot, appearing as a ‘Weather Presenting Pup’ in an episode of Bluey, hosting the red carpet at the AACTA AWARDS for Screen Queensland, and of course, traveling to Norfolk Island with Weekender.
