Notes Went to Australia in 1919 as a schoolboy. Lecturer in Dramatic Art at Otago University 1951 - 55. Bridget Armstrong recalls: The Otago University Dramatic Society had recently acquired the services of that gloriously Irvinesque figure, John V. Trevor. Trevor's presence alone would have been a boon to any young actress with half an eye to the Haymarket. (I can remember, even now, his final broken exit as Shylock in the Players' production of The Merchant of Venice. He was a remarkable man, with whom I later had the pleasure of working in Australia.) For a young actress just getting into her stride Trevor's rich vocalisation and likable personality must have been a godsend.
