Born Australia. Actor. We are really only guessing that this is the Ronald Falk on the list of donors for the Olivier statue.
We published this item in October 2010. Our colleague, Andrew Behan, has subsequently researched this man, Ronald Albert William Thompson Falk, and found in his obituary, published in The Sydney Morning Herald on 3 August 2016, that he did indeed contribute to the Olivier statue. He died, aged 80 years, on 27 June 2016.
His Wikipedia page gives details of his life.
