Our iconic New Zealanders come from all walks of life and represent a wide range of skills, achievement and endeavour.
Sir Edmund Hillary:
The humility of his reaction to all the post-Everest adulation endeared the beekeeper's son to the world. Over time, he cemented his position as the ultimate figure of a nation's pride precisely because he embodied the values and way of life to which most New Zealanders of his, and any other generation, aspire.
Richie McCaw:
All Black captain Richie McCaw has an outstanding ability to inspire the nation, he embodies the ideal national character and in his brilliant rugby career, McCaw has won everything that there is to win.
Ernest Rutherford:
Throughout his brilliant career - in which he was showered with honours and made a baron in 1931 - Rutherford never lost two essential qualities of the ideal New Zealand character: pragmatism and modesty.
Dame Whina Cooper:
Dame Whina had a long and distinguished career of leadership and service to her people before the hikoi. The march was her greatest achievement, arguably doing more to make Pakeha aware of how deeply Maori felt about the land and history than any of the petitions and protests of preceding generations.
Kate Sheppard:
Kate Sheppard, who joined the Women's Christian Temperance Union in 1885, became the guiding light of the campaign that was to earn New Zealand recognition as the first country in the world where women could vote in national elections.
