Doris Sinkora was for 24 years a Technical Assistant at the National Herbarium of Victoria; appointed to undertake general curation duties, she soon developed an interest in algae that saw her become curator of those collections.
With a keen interest in observing the natural environment, she and her sister studied the habits of the Superb Fairy-wren and their notes were published in Emu in 1958. Eileen and Joan were instrumental in the development of bush regeneration, particularly in removing weeds and promoting natural regeneration.
