Lois Achimovich was in the cohort before ours: 1955-1959. She was a prefect and high achiever in her year, winning both a General and the English Exhibition. She studied Medicine at UWA and then specialised in Psychiatry, going to Johns Hopkins University for postgraduate training. Returning to WA in 1971, she was a specialist in child psychiatry for a time, before going into private practice.
She was also a successful playwright, having four plays mounted in Perth and Fremantle, including two at the Playhouse. In 2022, sadly, she has dementia.
I have a page for her theatrical work on another website.
