Miss Olive Pink. Olive Pink arrived in Central Australia in 1930, and lived with the
Aboriginal people in the Tanami Desert. She studied the Arrernte and Walpiri
people and was a great advocate of Aboriginal rights. Later she lived in Alice
Springs and worked for the creation of this arid zone botanic garden.
