Early years and backgroundForde was born Mary Marguerite Leneen Kavanagh in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. She worked as a medical laboratory technician[2] and studied part-time for a Bachelor of Arts before moving to Australia in 1954. In 1955, she married (Francis) Gerald Forde, the son of Frank Forde, a former Prime Minister of Australia and High Commissioner to Canada.[3] Together, the Fordes had five children.[5] She worked in the Haematology Department of Royal Brisbane Hospital for two years prior to full-time legal study following her husband's death in 1966. She graduated a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Queensland in 1970 and from 1971 was employed as a solicitor.[2] From 1974 to 1992, she was a partner of Cannan & Peterson, in charge of probate and estates.[4] [5] Vice-Regal appointmentIn 1992, Forde was only the second woman to be appointed to the position of governor of an Australian state and the first to take on the role in Queensland.[6] Forde remarried a retired detective superintendent from New South Wales Police, Angus McDonald. McDonald served as vice-regal consort and was the first male spouse of a governor in Australia. Forde retired as governor in 1997. Forde InquiryIn 1998, Forde was appointed to chair the Commission of Inquiry into Abuse of Children in Queensland Institutions.[2] Forde handed the report to the Queensland Government in May 1999. The Inquiry covered 159 institutions from 1911 to 1999 and found abuse had occurred and made 42 recommendations relating to contemporary child protection practices, youth justice and redress of past abuse. The Inquiry resulted in reconciliation initiatives including apologies, commemorative memorials and events, establishment and delivery of the Queensland Government Redress Scheme, establishment of the Forde Foundation Trust Fund, and establishment of community-based support services.[7][8] HonoursOn 26 January 1993, Forde was appointed a Companion of the Order of Australia in recognition of her service to the law, to improving the status of women and to economic and business development.[9] Forde is a Dame of Grace in the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. She was International President of Zonta from 1990 until 1992,[2] and 1991 Queenslander of the Year.[10] References1. ^{{cite web |work=Who's Who in Australia |title=Forde, Leneen AC |publisher=Herald and Weekly Times |year=2002 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=FBsxAQAAIAAJ&q=%22forde,+Mary+Marguerite+Leneen%22+AND+%221935%22&dq=%22forde,+Mary+Marguerite+Leneen%22+AND+%221935%22&hl=en&ei=QSfuTe3HHMrh0QGV38SFCA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCsQ6AEwAA |accessdate=1 December 2012}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=http://www.sclqld.org.au/schp/exhibitions/witl/biographies/forde.htm |title=Biography: Leneen Forde |work=Women in Law in Queensland |publisher=Supreme Court of Queensland Library |year=2003 |accessdate=1 December 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Francis Michael Forde, PC |author=Nankervis, Anthony |date=2 September 2009 |url=http://apmc.oph.gov.au/lib/docs/15-Forde-Web.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090916104822/http://apmc.oph.gov.au/lib/docs/15-Forde-Web.pdf |dead-url=yes |archive-date=16 September 2009 |format=PDF |publisher=Museum of Australian Democracy }} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://eprints.qut.edu.au/16395/1/Susan_Currie_Thesis.pdf|title=Writing Women into the Law in Queensland|last=Currie|first=Susan|date=December 2006|website=Queensland University of Technology eprints|access-date=24 January 2018}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://fordefoundation.org.au/about/our-patron-leneen-forde|title=Leneen Forde AC|last=|first=|date=|website=The Forde Foundation|access-date=24 January 2018}} 6. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://www.abc.net.au/austory/series2/9724.htm |work=Australian Story |title=Her Excellency |format=transcript |date=26 July 1997 |publisher=ABC TV |location=Australia |accessdate=1 December 2012 }} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.communities.qld.gov.au/communityservices/community-support/forgotten-australians/forde-inquiry-and-redress-of-past-abuse |title=Forde Inquiry and Redress of past abuse |work=Department of Communities, Child Safety and Disability Services |publisher=Queensland Government |date=24 August 2012 |accessdate=1 December 2012 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20121118043925/http://www.communities.qld.gov.au/communityservices/community-support/forgotten-australians/forde-inquiry-and-redress-of-past-abuse |archivedate=18 November 2012 |df=dmy-all }} 8. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/content/2003/20030818_homies/int_forde.htm |title=Interview with Leneen Forde |format=transcript |work=Four Corners |publisher=ABC TV |location=Australia |date=18 August 2003 |accessdate=1 December 2012 |author=McDermott, Quentin }} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.itsanhonour.gov.au/honours/honour_roll/search.cfm?aus_award_id=873785&search_type=quick&showInd=true |title=FORDE, Mary Marguerite Leneen |date=26 January 1993 |work=It's an Honour |publisher=Commonwealth of Australia |accessdate=1 December 2012 }} 10. ^{{cite press release |author=Beattie, Peter |url=http://statements.cabinet.qld.gov.au/MMS/StatementDisplaySingle.aspx?id=52170 |title=Queensland Greats Awards Honour Living Legends |date=1 June 2007 |authorlink=Peter Beattie |accessdate=1 December 2012 |publisher=Queensland Government }} External links
