Connie Robertson was a newspaper editor (in those days editress) for over forty years. The daughter of A. G. Stephens the legendary editor of the Red Page of the ‘Bulletin’ she was a woman of style and great determination. I was privileged to know Mrs Robertson (only Connie to a few chosen ones and I was one) for some twelve years. Her career sounds like a who’s who of Sydney society and the literary world. I have written more in Wallaby Track No: 1027 dated May 25, 2009.
