===Birth and first marriage===
Fiction abounds in the autobiographical details supplied by own Evadne Price. There is considerable evidence that she was born '''Eva Grace Price''' on 28 August 1888 in Merewether, New South Wales, Australia (NSW Registry of BDM cert. no. 1888/032162). Daugther of British parents, her father, Jonathan Dixon Price, was a miner. In "SHE Stargazes" she gives her birth date as 28 August (p.82). There is no genealogical evidence to support her claim that she was born at sea c. 1896 (National Union Catalogue) or her later claim to have been born in England c. 1901. Acording her, she lied about her age, when her father died, and she went on stage to support herself and travel alone to England.

The article "Newcastle Girl is Film Writer" (''Newcastle Morning Herald'', 20 June 1939, p.6) reports that Evadne Price/Helen Zenna Smith was born in Merewether and attended the Junction School in Merewether.

She performed in the end-of-year school concerts at these establishments, giving recitations (as reported in the ''Maitland Daily Mercury'').

Biography

Birth and first marriage

Fiction abounds in the autobiographical details supplied by own Evadne Price. There is considerable evidence that she was born Eva Grace Price on 28 August 1888 in Merewether, New South Wales, Australia (NSW Registry of BDM cert. no. 1888/032162). Daugther of British parents, her father, Jonathan Dixon Price, was a miner. In "SHE Stargazes" she gives her birth date as 28 August (p.82). There is no genealogical evidence to support her claim that she was born at sea c. 1896 (National Union Catalogue) or her later claim to have been born in England c. 1901. Acording her, she lied about her age, when her father died, and she went on stage to support herself and travel alone to England.

The article "Newcastle Girl is Film Writer" (Newcastle Morning Herald, 20 June 1939, p.6) reports that Evadne Price/Helen Zenna Smith was born in Merewether and attended the Junction School in Merewether. She was probably also the Eva G. Price who attended the West Maitland Public School for Girls in 1902 and the Largs Public School in 1903. She performed in the end-of-year school concerts at these establishments, giving recitations (as reported in the Maitland Daily Mercury).

In 1908 twenty-year-old Eva Price played the First Twin in Australia's first production of "Peter Pan".

On 28 August 1909, at her 21st birthday, Eva Grace Price, actress, daughter of Jonathan Dixon Price, married a German-born actor Henry A. Dabelstein in Sydney (NSW Registry of BDM cert. no. 1909/007059). Henry may have used a stage name for his acting career.

England

By 1914 Eva Price was touring the English Provinces playing minor roles (Nottingham Evening Post, 10 Feb. 1914, p.3). In 1916, as her acting career blossomed, she changed "Eva" to the more evocative "Evadne" (Derby Daily Telegraph, 21 March 1916 p.2). Her acting career ended c. 1920 and she turned to journalism. She wrote a column for the Sunday Chronicle and other newspapers.

Evadne Grace Price married Charles A. Fletcher in London in 1920. There was no mention of her previous marriage on the GRO entry form. Charles A. Fletcher, Captain in the 3rd Devonshire Regiment, died in the Sudan in 1924.

In 1920 her place of birth was reported to be on board an ocean liner - more romantic than being the daughter of a coal miner in Australia (The Sunday Post, Lanarkshire, 7 March 1920 p.11).

In 1939 Evadne Fletcher married the also Australian writer, Kenneth Andrew Attiwill (alias Ken Attiwill 1906-1992) in Kent, England.

Journalism and the war

Many of Price's stories are set in a backdrop of the World Wars. Price's semi-biographical sketch of a group of ambulance drivers in World War I - Not So Quiet: Stepdaughters of War (1930), received critical acclaim, and was published under her pseudonym, Helen Zenna Smith. A British publisher initially approached Price to write a spoof on Erich Maria Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front. Price managed to persuade him to publish an account of a woman's experience of the war instead. She contacted Winnifred Young, a British ambulance driver who had kept war diaries to provide her with a basis for her story. It was translated into French as "Pas Si Calme" by Gallimard, Paris in 1931. It was translated into Spanish as "Hay novedad en el frente...: (Hijastras de Guerra)", in 1935. Also translated into Dutch; a trilogy "Gij vrouwen....!", "Vrouwen in nood" and "Vrouwenroeping".

During World War II, Price was the war correspondent for The People from 1943, covering the Allied invasion and all of the major war stories through the Nuremberg Trials. Her husband was a POW in Japan, and was presumed dead for two years.

Jane Turpin stories

Evadne Price is also remembered for her children's stories, which she often published in magazines. Her most well known creation in this field was Jane Turpin, often referred to as the "Female William" and serialized in the Novel magazine from 1928. Price, however, did not take kindly to Jane stories being referred to as a copy of the William series. She went on record saying she "had never heard of William", even though William stories were regularly advertised on Jane book dust jackets. The famous illustrator Thomas Henry Fisher, who illustrated both Jane and William books, even signed the illustrations for the Jane books as "Marriott" so as to distinguish the two series.

Romance novel author

Evadne Price was a very successful romance novelist and also wrote some romance novels under the pseudonym Helen Zenna Smith. Some of her books were serialized in the weekly British weekly The People. Several hundred of her novels were serialized in the Novel magazine. She was a vice-president of the Romantic Novelists' Association.[2]

Playwright and screenwriter

Price's career as a romance novelist took her into playwriting, radio scriptwriting and screenwriting. Her play Big Ben, written for the Malvern Festival in 1939, was a successful one (The Times called it "a large, comfortable play with a soul to call its own"). The Phantom Light (1937) was a stage version of her novel, The Haunted Light. The play was also made into a film starring Gordon Harker. Once a Crook (1939) - a play which was co-written by Price and her husband Ken Attiwill, was also both a play and a film. She also acted in the movie Trouble with Junia (1967) in the minor part of Miss Hallyday beside her husband Ken Attiwill.

Astrology

Evadne Price had a parallel career as a broadcaster during the early years of British television. Her afternoon horoscope show called "Fun with the Stars" led to a long-running evening program. Price was dubbed the "new astrologer extraordinaire" for twenty-five years for the SHE magazine and published a successful collection of these columns as SHE Stargazes. When she and her husband retired to their native Australia in 1976, Evadne Price wrote the monthly horoscope column for Australian Vogue.

She also appeared weekly on the ITV Central evening news magazine show with a 5 minute astrological reading and she would always close with the catchphrase "think lucky and you'll be lucky".
