”The Singing Policewoman” - part 2

Janet Low was the 79th policewoman to join Victoria Police in the 1960's. In those days, policewomen were restricted in what jobs they did; usually involving only welfare and children.

But Janet cracked the glass ceiling. She spent nearly 20 years at Victoria Police, retiring as a Senior Sergeant at Prahran. She was an opera-singer, cooking teacher and is very involved in Ballarat's theatrical and arts scene. In 2011, Janet was also the recipient of an Order of Australia Medal.
