Timeline

1946

Gabrielle Craig Lord (born 1946) is an Australian writer who has been described as Australia's first lady of crime.

She has published a wide range of writing including reviews, articles, short stories and non-fiction, but she is best known for her psychological thrillers.

Gabrielle Lord was born in Sydney.

She was educated at Kincoppal Rose Bay School of the Sacred Heart and the University of New England in Armidale, where she obtained an Honours degree in Victorian Literature.

She worked as a teacher and as a public servant with the Commonwealth Employment Service.

1978

In 1978, with the support of a New Writer's Fellowship, she took a year off work to write full-time.

The novel she wrote during the bulk of that time, A Death in the Family, received a bad reader's report, so Lord put it aside and in the remaining three weeks of her year off wrote Fortress.

1983

It was an instant success and, with the money from the film rights, she was able to leave paid employment in 1983 and return to full-time writing (Jennifer Ellison, Rooms of their Own, Penguin, Ringwood, 1986, p. 202).

Lord's other interests include animal welfare and a type of spirituality that is manifested in appreciation of the music of the Taizé Community, a spiritual community in France.

1986

Two of her novels have been filmed: Fortress (1986), a feature film adapted by scriptwriter Everett De Roche and directed by Arch Nicholson; and Whipping Boy (1996), a telemovie adapted by scriptwriter Peter Yeldham and directed by Di Drew.

2017

In February 2017, Lord spoke at a fundraising event for the far-right Q Society of Australia, where she claimed that there was a "war" going on between Islam and the West, and that the Muslims were "better prepared than we are".

Gabrielle Lord likes cats.

She lives in a beachside Sydney suburb and has one daughter and four granddaughters.

Lord's third novel was Fortress, a thriller about the kidnapping of a country school teacher and her students.

It was inspired by the Faraday School kidnapping, but takes dramatic licence with the actual events.

It was an instant success, was translated into six languages, and was made into a film.

Since then she has written many thrillers, including two series: the Gemma Lincoln series about an ex-cop PI, and the Jack McCain series about a forensic scientist.

She believes strongly in research, saying it is "necessary for today's savvy readers" and to this end has, over the years, spent time with scientists, detectives, and forensic anthropologists; she has studied some Anatomy at the University of Sydney; and has done work experience with a private security business.
