Amirah Inglis

[2][3][4] Prior to her birth, her parents had lived in Mandatory Palestine, and it was there that the Hebrew name Amirah had been suggested.

[5] At the age of two, Inglis and her mother travelled to Melbourne, Australia, to join her father there.

[13] After university, she worked as a librarian, first with the Department of Transport and then with the Communist Party's Melbourne newspaper, the Guardian.

[23] On Ken Inglis's retirement from UPNG in 1975 they returned to Canberra,[24] where they lived until 2007, when they moved to Melbourne.

[26][27] Inglis also edited a book of letters from an Australian, Frederick John Lloyd Edmonds (1906-1994) who had fought in Spain as part of the International Brigades during the Spanish Civil War: Edmonds, Lloyd, Letters from Spain, (1985: George Allen & Unwin).
