Who is Virginia Bell, the prospective royal commissioner?

Former High Court justice Virginia Bell is in the frame to lead the widely expected federal royal commission into the Bondi killings, but who is this eminent legal figure, and why does she have a profile on the entertainment database IMDB?

Bell, 74, has had a long and respected career in the law, including for more than a decade as a justice on the nation’s highest court.

She got her start at the Redfern Legal Centre in the 1970s, became a public defender and was appointed as a judge on the NSW Supreme Court and Court of Appeal in March 1999.

Along the way, she put her independent theatre school training to use and dabbled in television and radio, most notably as a guest on the ’80s nostalgia program, The Golden Years of Television, as alter-ego Ginger de Winter, president of the New South Wales Barrel Girls Association.
