Sarah Murdoch is an Australian model and actress. Brought up in Sydney, Australia, Murdoch attended The McDonald College of the Performing Arts, a performing arts school in Sydney, where she studied ballet. After being told by the ballet master, Alan Alexander Cross, that she was too tall and would never make it as a ballerina, she changed direction. As a fashion model she appeared in campaigns for Bonds (clothing), L'Oreal, Revlon, Ralph Lauren, Yves Saint Laurent and Estee Lauder, as well as the 1999 and 2003 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues. Her magazine covers includes Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire, Glamour, GQ and Harper's Bazaar in countries like Australia, Spain, United Kingdom and United States.

Sarah filled in for Jessica Rowe on the Australian version of the popular morning news and interview show, Today. Rowe was taking four months maternity leave. On 26 March 2007, it was reported in the Sydney Morning Herald that Murdoch would finish up her hosting duties on Today as of 30 March 2007. Nine News presenters Kellie Connolly replaced Sarah until May 2007, when Lisa Wilkinson took over as the new co-host on Today. Murdoch returned as a guest host on the 4 October 2007 episode, alongside Karl Stefanovic, to raise awareness about Breast Cancer as she is a patron of the National Breast Cancer Foundation. On film, Murdoch starred, with fellow supermodel Shalom Harlow, in the romantic comedy Head Over Heels. She also appeared on an episode of popular sitcom, Friends (S07E07).

Sarah Murdoch replaced Jodhi Meares as host of Australia's Next Top Model after Meares infamously blundered her way through the third season's live finale in 2007 and flat-out refused to appear in 2008's finale. In addition to hosting Top Model, Murdoch also inked a deal with Foxtel to create documentaries with her production company, Room 329 Productions. She experienced media scrutiny during the 2010 Australia's Next Top Model Grand Final for announcing an incorrect winner. In 12 December 2011, Murdoch announced that she is leaving Top Model after three seasons.
