Liz Cantor

Cantor was a professional surfer who competed on the Australian junior circuit for five years. Sponsored by Billabong, her surfing career took her to Fiji, Tahiti, the Maldives, Hawaii and Europe to compete.[5] She was also one of the first female surf judges to travel internationally on the ASP and World Circuit Tour.[6]

She made her on-screen debut in the 2002 Australian feature film Blurred, which followed five groups of teenagers as they hit the road for Schoolies Week.[7] A year later she appeared in the 2003 film Gettin Square before landing a role on Australian television drama series Blue Water High as Corin Hardy in 2005.[6] That year she won a spot on the Channel 7 reality television show The Mole, a show which kickstarted her career with broadcaster Channel 7.[4] In The Mole she worked with other contestants to perform challenges, each of which add money to the winner's pot. But one of the members is "The Mole", a saboteur who is covertly trying to make the group fail.[8] She competed against 12 other contestants and won, leaving the show with $200,000 in prize money.[6]

Following the show Channel 7 hired Cantor as a presenter on Queensland's water based outdoor adventure lifestyle program Creek to Coast and on The Great South East, a travel program focusing on tourist attractions in South East Queensland.[2] In 2005 Cantor made her debut as a weather presenter for Channel 7 News and in 2008 she became the presenter for Queensland's live Gold Lotto draw.[6] Cantor is still involved in each of these roles. Liz is now a host on travel and lifestyle show Queensland Weekender and in 2016 will appear in new ultra HD network INSIGHT's first ever adventure reality show shot in 4k Living Stone - Botswana.

Cantor has filled in on a number of summer radio shows for Nova Brisbane, Hot Tomato and Sea FM on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast. She teamed up with well-known radio personality Michael "Pickle" Walkley to host Sea FM Summer Breakfast on the Gold Coast over the Christmas break in 2013/14.[9]
