Denise Margaret Allen (born 29 March 1953) is a former Australian politician.
Born in Alexandra, Victoria to Jack Donald and Bette Doreen Boote, she attended local public schools before graduating in 1970. She was a professional model from 1972 to 1994 before becoming a motivational speaker. She also owned a modelling agency, beauty therapy studio and retail fashion store.[1]
In 2000, she was the Labor Party candidate for the by-election for the safe Nationals seat of Benalla in the Victorian Legislative Assembly, which was being vacated by former Nationals leader Pat McNamara. She won a surprise victory over new Nationals candidate Bill Sykes, winning by only 237 votes. A Buddhist, she was the inaugural chairperson of the Parliamentary Friends of Tibet. In the 2002 state election, she was defeated by Sykes. She was a People Power candidate for the Victorian Legislative Council in 2006, contesting Northern Victoria Region unsuccessfully.[1]
