Browning Mummery
Joseph Browning Mummery (1888-1974), was born in inner suburban Melbourne to a musically-inclined family who fostered his interest in singing. He served an apprenticeship as a mechanic, but claimed that his 'thoughts were always on singing', taking lessons and devoting all his 'spare cash and spare time to music'. Mummery's professional singing break came when he successfully auditioned for a touring Italian opera company. He took a month's leave to perform with them in Melbourne, later giving up his full-time job to join the company when it was taken over by J.C Williamson in 1920. In 1921, Mummery went to England and a year later was engaged by the English National Opera Company.

Albert F. Mummery
Albert Frederick Mummery (ur. 10 września1855 w Dover w hrabstwie Kent, zm. 24 sierpnia1895 w masywie Nanga Parbat) – brytyjski alpinista i pisarz. Autor wielu pierwszych przejść w Alpach, głównie w masywach Mont Blanc i Matterhornu. Początkowo wspinał się w towarzystwie przewodników górskich, zwłaszcza pochodzącego z Saas-FeeAlexandra Burgenera. Później był jednym z pierwszych alpinistów, podejmujących trudne alpejskie wspinaczki, również nowymi drogami, bez pomocy lokalnych przewodników, dzięki czemu uznawany jest za prekursora alpinizmu sportowego. W niektórych wspinaczkach towarzyszyła mu jego żona Mary. Był pierwszym człowiekiem, który podjął zaawansowaną próbę zdobycia szczytu ośmiotysięcznego – Nanga Parbat w Himalajach (osiągnął wysokość 6100 m n.p.m.). Był autorem klasycznej dziś książki pt. My Climbs in the Alps and Caucasus (London 1895).
