GRAHAM4 PERKIN
I knew Graham Perkin well and was shocked and saddened
to hear of his death.
He was an outstanding journalist and a brilliant editor
whose integrity and professionalism and extraordinary capacity
for work made the Age one of the great newspapers of the world.
Australian journalism can ill afford tbeloss of a man of
his ability and independence of mind.
I offer my heartfelt sympathy to his widow and family.
