Lyndley ("Lyn") Craven worked for the CSIRO plant taxonomy unit of the New Guinea Survey Group, Division of Land Research and Regional Survey from 1964 to 1967. This was part of a unit that became the Australian National Herbarium, Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research. Craven's duties included botanical support for land resources surveys. Craven then left to study horticulture at Burnley Horticultural College, Victoria earning the degree of Diploma of Horticultural Science in 1970 before being briefly employed by the Parks and Gardens Branch of Department of the Interior, Canberra.

Craven worked on the genera ''Melaleuca'' and ''Syzygium'' (Family Myrtaceae) and related groups as well as Australian representatives of the genera ''Hibiscus'' and ''Gossypium''.

Plant collecting was also a high priority.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.anbg.gov.au/biography/craven-lyndley-alan.html )〕 ==Published works== *"Physiological, anatomical and biochemical characterisation of photosynthetic types in genus ''Cleome'' (Cleomaceae)".
