Daphne CAMPBELL
Also known as: née Campbell, Daphne Calder
Born: 1926
Died: 15/10/2013
Special Achievements:Pictured here at Emily Gap outside Alice Springs, she starred opposite Australian acting legend chips Rafferty in The Overlanders, a classic movie being the first to show Australia's true outback on screen and filmed largely in the Top End and Alice Springs area of the Northern Territory. A Lance-Corporal in the Australian Army Medical Women's Service during World War II, Daphne was picked from obscurity by an Ealing Studios director after a successful screen test in Sydney's Centennial Park. Her fresh face and riding skills won her the part.
