Sorry for the delay folks.  Just been for another check-up, which turned out great, but had to stay with a friend over-nite, and didn't have my Lap-top with me.

Not Yvonne, Sandy.  Think first two letters of the Alphabet.  That should give it to some-one.  

Anne Baxter?

Good to hear it is all OK Sheba

You're right, and thanks Sandy.   Who are we looking for now ?

Anne Baxter (May 7, 1923 December 12, 1985) was an American actress, star of Hollywood films, Broadway productions, and television series. She won an Academy Award and a Golden Globe, and was nominated for an Emmy. A granddaughter of Frank Lloyd Wright, Baxter studied acting with Maria Ouspenskaya and had some stage experience before making her film debut in 20 Mule Team (1940). She became a contract player of 20th Century Fox and was loaned to RKO Pictures for the role of Lucy Morgan in Orson Welles' The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), one of her earlier films. In 1947, she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Sophie MacDonald in The Razor's Edge (1946). In 1951, she received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress for the title role in All About Eve (1950). She worked with several of Hollywood's greatest directors, including Billy Wilder in Five Graves to Cairo (1943), Alfred Hitch**** in I Confess (1953), Fritz Lang in The Blue Gardenia (1953), and Cecil B. DeMille in The Ten Commandments (1956), for which she won a Laurel Award for Topliner Female Dramatic Performance.

Thanks Sheba, now who is this lady.

Dolly Dyer.

That was a quick game, over to you for a pic Sheba.

Thelma Phoebe Mclean MBE (5 June 1921  25 December 2004), known professionally as Dolly Dyer (formerly Mack) was an Australian Gold Logie winning radio and TV personality, and wife of fellow game-show host and performer Bob Dyer.

Early life[edit]

She was born and grew up in Sydney's eastern suburbs. Her father died when she was young and she was raised by her mother. The family nickname was "Mack" so she took the name Dolly Mack when she was employed as a showgirl in Sydney's Tivoli Theatre in 1940.

She met her husband there, literally running into him in a doorway. They married within two weeks at St John's, Darlinghurst, Sydney.

Can't believe he's still here.  He's been in dozens of movies, and won numerous awards for same.

Is it too easy ?

Where would we be without Google, I thought he was American but he is British. Clive Owen.

Thanks Sheba now who is this fella.

I was going to take a break for a day or so, and give other people more of a chance, but this one's too good.

Albert Namatjira.

Well done Sheba I thought this would be a hard one. 

EDIT: I forgot the Bio

Albert Namatjira (born Elea Namatjira; 28 July 1902 8 August 1959) was an Aboriginal artist from the MacDonnell Ranges in Central Australia. As a pioneer of contemporary Indigenous Australian art, he was the most famous Indigenous Australian of his generation. He was the first Aboriginal artist to receive popularity from a wide Australian audience.^[1]

A member of the Western Arrernte people, Namatjira was born and raised at the remote Hermannsburg Lutheran Mission, 126km west-southwest from Alice Springs. He showed interest in art from an early age but it was not until 1934 (aged 32) and under the guidance of Rex Battarbee that he began to paint seriously. Namatjira's richly detailed, Western art-influenced watercolours of the outback departed significantly from the abstract designs and symbols of traditional Aboriginal art, and inspired the Hermannsburg School of painting. He became a household name in Australia and reproductions of his works hung in many homes throughout the nation.

In 1956, a portrait of Namatjira by William Dargie became the first of an Aboriginal person to win the Archibald Prize. Namatjira was awarded the Queen's Coronation Medal in 1953, and was honoured with an Australian postage stamp in 1968.

Namatjira was the first^{[dubious  discuss][citation needed]} recorded Northern Territory Aboriginal person to be freed from restrictions that made Aboriginal people wards of the state when he was granted British Subjecthood and Australian citizenship in 1957. This gave him the right to vote, freedom of movement and freed him from restrictions on buying alcohol but, in the Northern Territory, he still had limited land rights

Thank Sandy.  This one should be easy.  Who are these people ?

Lets see. I think maybe Elvis Presley

And his mum ?

Of course you're right Alana.  Sorry I was so long replying.  Didn't feel to well yesterday, and slept right through.

Who are we looking for now ?

The King of Rock and Roll acknowledged that the most important woman in his life was Gladys Love Presley, his beloved mother. As much as his mother was the most important woman for him, she definitely was the most influential who encouraged Elvis to show his talent.

He cherished his mom beyond all limits, and his mom in turn spoilt Elvis beyond all limits. At the time Elvis' father was sentenced for 3 years in Parchman penitentiary for check forgery, a strange reversal of responsibilities between son and mother took place. Elvis became the father of the family at a young age.

Elvis confusion at being both son and father was to happen all his life. From that time, Gladys and Vernon were 'his babies'.

Elvis was nineteen when he became the support and sole breadwinner, not only to his family but to many of his kin as well.

With his first check, Elvis gave his mom a pink Cadillac. However, Gladys was always worried that fame might distance her from her son.

If his mom could barely tolerate Elvis' fame, it was because when Elvis would call at her each night, and talk for hours to relieve her pain and anxiety. Gladys' depression worsened her medical condition, and became morbid when Elvis joined the army.

Elvis being in the army finally and fatally separated him from his mother. When the army took Elvis away from her mother, it broke her mother's heart.

Only six months after his enlistment on the 14th of August, 1958, his beloved mother died from a heart attack brought by acute hepatitis.

Elvis was asleep when his father called in the early hours of August 14. His father told him his mother had died at 3.15 am.

In disbelief and shock, Elvis rushed to the hospital. When Elvis entered Glady's ward, people at the hospital witnessed a piercing wild despair of wails from the King of Rock and Roll as he cried and prayed loud and long over his mom's lifeless body.

At the funeral, he flung himself at his mother's coffin, kissing and hugging her, rocking her back and forth, weeping and crying out to her. Each time Elvis went back to Graceland after her mom's death, he became very depressed.

He walked around not talking to anyone. Lots of his family members reiterated the same emotions - that after Gladys died, Elvis completely changed. "He did not seem like Elvis ever again."

After his mother's death, Elvis kept Vernon close to him. They were together for 2 years in Germany and it was there where Vernon met the woman who would become Elvis' future stepmother.

When his father married Dee Stanley, Elvis didn't attend his father's wedding. However, he invited his three stepbrothers (sons of Dee by a previous marriage) David, Rick and Billy to live with him at his beloved home, Graceland, and they were loved by him and spoiled with gifts and attention.

 Sorry Sheba, no one from NZ

. From the northern hemisphere

I have been trying for an Australian singer born in the UK and the closest in appearance I got was Mick Harvey, but he was born in Aust.   

Yes, born in the UK.

Started life in Oz in South Australia

His younger brother (half) is very well known for a specific band then a solo career.

It took a bit of tracking down Jimmy barns older brother John Swan OAM. Is he a half brother? he has a different name because Jimmy took his step fathers name.

 John Swan it is

I thought they were brothers also but obviously mislead by some wrong info. Its true, Wikipedia is correct

John Swan OAM, better known as Swanee, is an Australian rock singer. He was born John Archibold Dixon Swan in Glasgow, Scotland in 1952. Wikipedia

Born: 15 March 1952 (age 69 years), Glasgow, United Kingdom

Also known as: Swanee

Music groups: The Party Boys, Fraternity (1974 1976), Cold Chisel (Since 1975)

Who do you have for us now

Thanks Relax-n, I think Swanee went back to live with his father and kept the family name and Jimmy barns and the other siblings stayed with his Mother and new step father and adopted the step fathers name.

Now who is this fella. 

Looks familiar

Similar era ?

I would say a similar era though he is 5 years older so maybe a tad earlier. You would definitely know him if it was a younger photo with his hair longer and curley.
