Doris Pilkington Garimara (born Nugi Garimara; c. 1 July 1937 – 10 April 2014), also known as Doris Pilkington, was an Australian author. She was best known for her 1996 book ''Follow the Rabbit-Proof Fence'', a story of three Aboriginal girls, among them Pilkington's mother, Molly Craig, who escaped from the Moore River Native Settlement in Western Australia and travelled for nine weeks to return to their family. ==Biography== Pilkington was born at Balfour Downs Station, near the north Western Australian settlement of Jigalong.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Australian Women Biographical entry )〕 Her mother, Molly, named her Nugi Garimara, but she was called Doris after Molly's employer at the station, Mary Dunnet, who thought Nugi was "a stupid name". As her birth was unregistered, her birth date was recorded as 1 July 1937 by the Department of Native Affairs.〔Stephens, Tony: (All tracks lead to Jigalong ), ''The Sydney Morning Herald'', 7 December 2002.〕 She was taken from her mother to be raised at the Moore River mission when she was three and a half years old.〔 Her sister, Annabelle, was also taken when she was 3 years old, but has not acknowledged Craig or Pilkington since she was abducted.
