“The first lady of Western Australian television” deserves that honour on so many levels. Not only is Coralie the grande dame of WA theatre, being a playwright, composer, actor, producer and director of not only stage productions, but also kick started local television production in WA.

Coralie was also the first woman employed by TVW Channel 7 and the first lady seen live on WA television, on the evening prior to the official opening night.

On May 16th, 2012, Coralie will be celebrating her 97th birthday. As the below links will show, she still takes a keen interest in the theatre and everything else for that matter. Coralie regularly entertains friends and colleagues in the entertainment industry.

    Dear Ken I would appreciate if you would pass on my 93 year old mothers ( Elsa Frank) regards to Corrilie as they worked together
    With mothers fashion parades which she ran for many years.
    Mum employed many from the TY and Radio industries and her productions were minor miraciales
    .She traded as Vienna Modes and made many productions for various charities. Loyd Lawson was a regular at the family home along with many others.
    It would make mum extremely happy to receive a phone call so I supply her number 93756855 she lives in the Maurice Zeffert retirement village and we provide her with carers 24/7 so her twilight years are comfortable.
    Cheers
    Ron Frank
