She waited at the gate for her mother to return but it soon dawned on her that her family was not coming to get her. This is Robyn's story. From humble and sometimes horrific beginnings Robyn became one of Australia's leading fashion and textile designers and an accomplished artist. In Waiting at the Gate Robyn transforms her life in front of the reader's eyes and comes back from the brink of suicide to build a happy and successful life.Women artists, Aboriginal AustralianBiographyArtists, Aboriginal AustralianBiographyWomen textile designersAustraliaBiographyTextile designersAustraliaBiographyAustralianWomen artists, Aboriginal AustralianArtists, Aboriginal AustralianWomen textile designersTextile designers700.92746.14092Caughlan Robyn1496142Foster Jason913655MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790493103321Waiting at the gate3720648UNINA
