SUMMARY:The World of Mab Grimwade
DESCRIPTION:Born into a genteel family of pastoralists and investors in colonial Victoria\, Mabel Louise Kelly (1887–1973)\, or ‘Mab’ to those who knew her\, would grow up to make an enormous contribution to Victoria and Australia. Most evidently\, it was made through bequests to the University of Melbourne and through the donation to the university of a large\, diverse and highly valuable collection of books and artworks. Mab Kelly married Russell Grimwade—chemist\, botanist\, industrialist and philanthropist—in 1909\, and much of her life from that point was publicly defined by her husband’s narrative. While Russell Grimwade left a large private collection including autobiographical papers\, letters\, and miscellanea that could be accessed by his biographer\, Mab preserved very little in the way of personal papers. How do we recover the lives of women who left little documentation? How do we piece together their stories and cultural impact? Using Mab Grimwade as a case study\, this talk addresses some of the methodological problems faced by historians writing biographies of women.
