Catherine Berndt
Catherine Helen Berndt, née Webb (8 May 1918 – 12 May 1994), born in Auckland, was an Australian anthropologist. She published valuable monographs on Aboriginal Australia, including Changing ceremonies in Northern Australia (1950).[1]
With her husband Ronald Berndt, she collected lots of art works in Australia and Asia. The collection is conserved in the Berndt Museum of Anthropology, founded by the couple in 1976 (University of Western Australia).
As a couple, they published monographs including The Aboriginal Australians: The First Pioneers and Arnhem Land: Its history and its people.[2]
The joint publications went into multiple editions, with their main titles being revised regularly.[3]
She died four years after her husband [4][5]
