Grace Cuthbert-Browne MBE (1900 – 1988) was an Australian doctor instrumental in improving the health of mothers and babies, and the consequent reduction in maternal and infant deaths in Australia. She was Director of Maternal and Baby Welfare in the New South Wales Department of Public Health from 1937 to 1964; during this time the infant fatality rate decreased form 40 to 20 per thousand live births.〔 ==Early life== Grace Cuthbert was born in Port Glasgow, Scotland, the youngest of five children. Her mother Mary later became involved in a variety humanitarian and medical charities. Her father was a merchant sailor who captained ships from New Zealand to England carrying frozen mutton. In 1901 he was appointed as "chief marine surveyor" for a group of insurance companies in Sydney. This resulted in Grace and the family (three older brothers, an older sister had died of whooping cough) moving to Sydney where they settled in Kirribilli. Grace was one year old. When Grace was six the family moved to Lindfield and she attended school first at Lindfield College and then at Ravenswood in the Sydney suburb of Gordon. Cuthbert enjoyed golf, tennis and surfing, and continued these activities well into her adult life.〔
