Timeline
In 2011, Findlay was entered on the Tasmanian Honour Roll posthumously for Women for her contribution towards Architecture in Australia.
Upon leaving school in New Norfolk, she became an apprentice for a Hobart-based architect, A.T. Johnston while studying architecture in Hobart Technical College, which was affiliated with the Sydney Technical College. A year after finishing her apprenticeship, she worked for the Australian Newsprint Mills (ANM) Pty Ltd as an architectural draftswoman, and later after 15 months, when the ANM head architect left the company, she assumed full architectural responsibility of the New Norfolk “town-site” project which was a residential suburb for workers' families in New Norfolk where she personally designed at least 60 residential houses for ANM staff members. During her architectural teaching, she got her Diploma in Town and Country Planning from the University of Sydney where she worked and graduated in 1951. She retained her position as the head of the department until she retired in 1970.
In an interview with The Mercury in 1945, Findlay famously mentioned “never was there such an opportunity for girls to take up architecture, and this was their chance to. show the profession and the public what they could do.” Not only she opened up opportunity for Tasmanian young architects to be RAIA associate, she also formulated an architecture educational system for Hobart Technical College that qualifies students to become associates of the institute and enrolled as a registered architect under Tasmanian law after undertaking the five-year course.
Findlay was the first female in Tasmania to qualify as an associate of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (RAIA). She passed the qualification in 1943, with one other Tasmanian architect, Charles Crawford. Findlay was also the first female to be a registered architect in Tasmania. In 1944, Findlay became the first female architect employed by the Public Works Department in Tasmania and by 1945, she was selected as the Instructor in Architectural Draftsmanship at the University of Sydney, the first and only female of that position in the school.
