LIZA
FACTOID
One of Liza's earliest awards:
According
to the Sydney Star Observer, one of Liza's earliest awards was "Queen
of the Compass Centre" -- given when Liza and Peter Allen attended
the opening of the Compass Centre Shopping Plaza, on the North Terrace
of Bankstown, Australia (a Sydney suburb; the Centre is now
due for redevelopment).
(The article states this
as happening in 1964, but Liza only met Peter in the fall of 1964, and
her hectic schedule likely didn't allow her to visit Australia with Peter
until 1966 or 1967 -- they did tour Australia in the summer of 1967.
Still, Liza and Peter were apparently dubbed "King and Queen of
the Compass Centre.") |
