Albert Tatlock [SEP] present in work
Albert Tatlock
Albert Tatlock is a fictional character on the British television soap opera "Coronation Street". Albert was played by actor Jack Howarth from 1960 to 1984. The character became something of an institution, so much so that grumpy old men were sometimes nicknamed "Albert Tatlock".
A veteran of the First World War, Albert settled back into civilian life by marrying and starting a family, however his wife Bessie died in 1959 and he retired from his job at the Town Hall the following year, taking up
young Australian designers to study abroad.
His work is held in the National Gallery of Australia, in many state and regional collections in Australia, and in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
In 1973, Bryan Robertson wrote and Harry Tatlock Miller edited, a memoir titled simply "Loudon Sainthill" (Hutchinson & Co Ltd, London, ).
Sainthill's papers were donated to the National Gallery of Australia by Harry Tatlock Miller in 1989. He died later the same year.
