The sweet smell of success is no perfume for a woman. Say it's old-fashioned, say it's corny, but, as far as I can see, a girl who wears a 'business scent' is not attractive. A woman who flaunts her career as if it was a new hat is not beautiful.

But I did a lot of boxing and I was captain of an Australian surf club.

I married at a tender age during my early stage and radio struggles.

Anyway, when I was a kid, I dutifully went to the Sydney Technical and Fine Arts College.

Dore Schary was then head of the studio and he wanted to change my name.

I worked at Mark Foy's during the day and studied drama at night.

I am a poor student sitting at the feet of giants, yearning for their wisdom and begging for lessons that might one day make me a complete artist, so that if all goes well, I may one day sit beside them.
