Judith Durham house: Where did Judith Durham live?

For the last 22 years, she was my neighbour in Melbourne, Australia, her family revealed to Ghanafuo.com via email. That was her last address before going into care.

Australia’s prime minister, Anthony Albanese, praised Durham, calling her a “national treasure.” 

“Judith Durham gave voice to a new thread of our identity and helped pave the way for a new generation of Australian artists,” he said on Twitter.

“Many will mourn her generosity, and the songs she offered to our country will never be forgotten.”

Durham received several awards over her long career, including the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for contributions to music in 1995 and the Centenary Medal in 2003.

In 2015, she was also awarded Victorian of the Year.

Durham married British musician and musical director Ron Edgeworth in 1969, and he died 30 years later.
