Article - Article - Women, Ballarat University, Horsham Campus: Women of Note; Brigette Muir, Mountaineer and Adventurer, (1958 -)
Brigitte Muir was born in Belgium in 1958. As a teenager she discovered 'caving' and decided outdoor adventures were more fun than watching television. After immigrating to Australia, Muir settled in the Western Victorian town of Natimuk. From this base she studied art at the University of Ballarat, Horsham Campus. Since 1976, she has climbed and bushwalked all over the world. Brigitte completed the 'Seven Summits' in May 1997 when she became the first woman to scale Mt Everest. She was awarded the Order of Australia in 2000 for her services to mountaineering. She was also awarded the Centenary Medal for mountaineering. Brigitte Muir's riveting autobiography The Wind in My Hair is a tale of true heroism, courage and an unconquerable determination.women of note, brigette muir, belgium, immigrated to australia, western victoria, natimuk, art, university of ballarat, horsham campus, seven summits, mount everest, first woman to top, order of australia, centenary medal, mountaineering, author, the wind in my hair
