Frederick Millward Grey (5 August 1899 – 1957), generally called "Millward Grey", was an English painter, etcher and art teacher who had a substantial career in South Australia.
History.
Grey studied under Gerald Spencer Pryse, at the Central School of Art in London, and arrived in Adelaide in 1923 to take up a position with Fred C. Britton's North Adelaide School of Fine Arts, Tynte Street, North Adelaide. Grey and Britton held a joint exhibition in November 1924 which was well received. His sketches were used in the design of the War Memorial on North Terrace. He succeeded Britton as director of the School of Fine Arts. Nora Heysen was a notable student. In 1939 he stood for the Robe ward of the Adelaide City Council, but was defeated by H. G. Willcox. Grey was acting principal of the South Australian School of Arts and Crafts during John Goodchild's absence, and appointed to the position in 1946, and served (later title: Director of the South Australian School of Art) until 1956. He was a member of the Royal South Australian Society of Arts and in 1953 he was elected president after outgoing president Goodchild controversially named him as his fitting successor. He served as President 1953–1956.
