Judith McGrath is an Australian actress, best known for her television roles as Colleen Powell in Prisoner on Network Ten and Von Ryan in the medical drama All Saints on Network Seven. She spent many of her formative years training at Brisbane Arts Theatre and was a company member of Twelfth Night Theatre under theatre director, Joan Whalley. McGrath was born in Brisbane, Queensland. She is probably best known to international audiences for her early performances on Australian television as fair-minded but sarcastic Deputy Governor Colleen "Po Face" Powell in the cult series Prisoner. Initially appearing on-and-off for the first two years on the show, Powell became a leading character in 1981 and McGrath continued the role in that way before leaving the series permanently in 1984. After this she appeared in guest roles in 1985 episodes of Neighbours and The Flying Doctors. She also appeared in one series of the Australian children's television show Round The Twist as Matron Gribble. She was also a regular cast member on A Country Practice as Bernice Hudson from 1992 until 1993. [More at Wikipedia]
