Jaimie Leonarder

Jaimie Leonarder

Jaimie Leonarder (also known as "Jay Katz") is an Australian musician, archivist, social worker, film critic, radio announcer, and DJ.

Born and raised in Sydney, Leonarder attended Artarmon Public School and Crows-Nest Boys High School. He is the second of four children: Roderick, Jaimie, Kelvin, and Jennine. He trained as a nurse studying both general and psychiatric nursing and has worked in welfare, as a youth worker, a diversional therapist, and managing the Hurstville C.Y.S.S. centre.

In the 1980s, Leonarder formed an experimental noise rock band called the Mu Mesons, and he now works as a DJ for the monthly "The Sounds of Seduction" night club.

He was the subject of the documentary film "Love & Anarchy: The Wild Wild World of Jaimie Leonarder".

With Fenella Kernebone and Megan Spencer in 2005 and 2006, Leonarder co-hosted the "The Movie Show", a film criticism show broadcast on SBS television.

Currently, he hosts "The Naked City" (a radio show on FBi Radio in Sydney) along with his wife Miss Death and Coffin Ed. He also hosts the weekly Cult Sinema Monday night at the Annandale Hotel in Sydney and shows films and documentaries at his private cinema, the Mu-Meson Archives.
