Description
Born into a struggling Jewish family, Theodore Fink was an energetic, controversial public figure well known in Melbourne from the 1870s to the 1940s. He did not achieve high office but was a solicitor by profession; a bon vivant and patron of the arts by inclination. He divided his energies between the law, business, newspapers and education
