Sir Collier Robert Cudmore (13 June 1885 – 16 May 1971) was an Australian lawyer, politician and Olympic rower who won the Gold medal in the 1908 Summer Olympics.
==Early life and rowing career==
Cudmore was born at Avoca, Wentworth, New South Wales, Australia, the son of Daniel Henry Cudmore, a pastoralist, and his second wife Martha Earle, née McCracken. He attended St Peter's College and the University of Adelaide.〔( P. A. Howell ''Cudmore, Sir Collier Robert (1885 - 1971)'' at Australian Dictionary of Biography online. First published in print in ''Australian Dictionary of Biography'', Volume 13, Melbourne University Press, 1993, pp 540-541 )〕 He went to England to continue his education at Magdalen College, Oxford, where he rowed for his college and for Oxford in the Boat Race of 1908. He was a member of the Magdalen College Coxless four which won the Stewards' Challenge Cup and the Visitors' Challenge Cup at Henley Royal Regatta in 1908.〔(Henley Royal Regatta Results of Final Races 1839-1939 )〕 The Magdalen crew was chosen to represent Great Britain rowing at the 1908 Summer Olympics, and Cudmore was the bow-man in the four with John Somers-Smith, Angus Gillan and Duncan Mackinnon. The crew won the gold medal for Great Britain and defeated a Leander crew.〔(Sports Reference Olympic Sports - Collier Cudmore )〕 Cudmore rowed again for Oxford in the Boat Race in 1909.
Cudmore studied law at the Inner Temple and was called to the bar in 1910, then returned to Australia and formed a partnership with Stanley Murray. He practiced law until 1955.〔
An officer in the Royal Field Artillery Special Reserve, Cudmore commanded a battery in France during the First World War. He was wounded twice, and as a result was plagued by back problems for the rest of his life.
