A Lawson Legacy
The Henry Lawson Memorial and Literary Society of Victoria (HLMLS) has had gatherings to commemorate Henry Lawson and his works every year for the last 100 years (1923-2023). The list of invited speakers beside the Lawson Tree at the Annual Footscray Hill Park event forms a ‘Who’s Who’ of Australian writers and their influential devotees. Henry’s friends, his ex-wife, his brother and his daughter all supported the HLMLS, and the monthly meetings in Melbourne were lively and popular events.
