His work encompassed the numerous Australian architectural styles of the inter-war period and he was considered to be "one of the finest draftsmen of his day”.[3] FamilyHeath was born in Junee, New South Wales, to Edward and Euphemia (Effie) Heath.[4] His brother Clive Patterson Heath(1895–1963), also an architect, was born the following year.[5] Clive married Edna Jean Pritchard (1902–1968) in 1926. She graduated as a Bachelor of Architecture in 1924 and Clive graduated in 1925 and they lived in Manly, New South Wales. Clive and Edna lived and worked in Brisbane, Queensland in the late 1930s and early 1940s as architects, and then returned to Sydney.[6] Early lifeEric Heath attended Newington College as a boarding student commencing in 1907.[7] Heath was articled in architecture and studied at Sydney Technical College.[8] In 1924 he married Edna Castle Graham and commenced private practice in 1926. An Ideal Cottage competition was arranged in 1926 by the organisers of the Ideal Homes Exhibition, and the adjudicators were Sir Charles Rosenthal, Alexander Speers, Dr Richard Arthur and Florence Taylor. Heath won the second prize of £50.[9] Plaza TheatreIn 1930, Heath designed the Plaza Theatre (Sydney), a now heritage listed building designed as a 2000-seat cinema for the Hoyts Group. Today it is rare surviving example of central Sydney's inter-war building boom in theatre buildings. It is one of only three surviving theatre buildings in the city.[1] Laurie and HeathIn 1932, Heath joined William Rae Laurie in a partnership known as Laurie & Heath.[10] By 1936 the firm were designing houses in Turramurra, Killara, Wahroonga, Pymble, Gordon, Camden and Bathurst. In 1936 he designed Andover, 51 Warrangi Street Turramurra, a significant Georgian Revival house.[11] In 1937 the partners designed Grazcos House, an office building, in Young Street, Sydney. Two years later the firm designed a classroom block for Abbotsleigh, a girls school in Wahroonga. Heath and Laurie remained partners until the beginning of World War II when Heath enlisted.[3] References1. ^1 Heritage Branch Retrieved 30.5.2012 {{DEFAULTSORT:Heath, Eric}}2. ^Heritage Branch Retrieved 30.5.2012 3. ^1 {{Citation | author1=Ku-ring-gai Historical Society | title=The Historian | publication-date=2009 | publisher=Ku-ring-gai Historical Society | issn=0310-298X }} 4. ^NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages 5. ^NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages 6. ^Early Women Students University of Sydney 7. ^Newington College Register of Past Students 1863-1998 (Sydney, 1999) pp 86 8. ^Freeland, J.M.
