Anne Phelan - Biography
Anne Mary Phelan, OAM (born 2 August 1944), is a much awarded Australian actress, who has appeared prominently in theatre, Australian television productions and soap operas, including Prisoner where she played the role of 'Top Dog' Myra Desmond and Monica Taylor in Something in the Air. She is the winner of two AFI Television Awards.
In the late 1970s, she played guest roles in Prisoner. She took the role of Officer Manson, appearing in one episode of the series in 1979. This character had the sole purpose of threatening to resign over the favourable treatment afforded to prisoner Barbara Davidson in episode 17. Later in 1979, Phelan reappeared in the series, this time playing the role of dopey prisoner Bernadette in a number of episodes.
She first appeared on screen as Myra Desmond on a recurring basis between 1980 and 1983; Myra was then reintroduced to the series in early 1984 as a regular character, and continued in the role for a further eighteen months.
In 2012, Phelan joined the cast of comedy drama Winners & Losers in the on-going role of Dot Gross. Winners & Losers marked her first regular role in ten years. Prior to this, she had appeared in several theatre productions and made various television guest appearances.
