Nicole Dawn Livingstone, OAM (born 24 June 1971) is an Australian former competitive swimmer, Olympic silver medallist, and a television sports commentator and radio presenter. Livingstone competed for Australia in three summer Olympics - 1988, 1992, and 1996 - winning both individual and team medals. She was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.
She retired from swimming after the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, United States, and joined the Australian sports network Nine Network as a host of Nine's Wide World of Sport, and a commentator for swimming.
Livingstone is currently a radio presenter for Melbourne station SEN 1116 and presenter at Network Ten and also a panelist and fill in presenter for Carrie Bickmore on The Project.
She is active in promoting drug-free sports in Australia and is involved in the Australian Olympic Committee's "Live Clean, Play Clean" anti-doping education program. She was also a board member of the Australian Sports Drug Agency (ASDA), whose mission is to combat drug use in sports.
She held the Australian record for the 200-metre backstroke, with at time of 2:10.20, set on 31 July 1992 at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain for 16 years. Meagen Nay broke the Australian record twice at the 2008 Australian Olympic Trials. Notably, she is the only Australian swimmer to have competed in six successive Pan Pacific Swimming Championships.
In 1995, the State Transit Authority named a RiverCat ferry after Livingstone.
Livingstone was awarded the Order of Australia Medal in 1997 for service to swimming as a representative at state, national and international levels.
