TILL, PETER LEONARD (1937-1976), public servant, was born on 9 February 1937 at Portsmouth, England, only child of Leonard Alfred Till, chemist's assistant, and his wife Dorothy Mary, née Starling. Peter attended Hambledon County Primary and Portsmouth Grammar schools. In 1955 he entered Jesus College, Oxford (B.A., 1959), where he read classics, and philosophy, politics and economics. At the register office, Oxford, on 18 June 1959 he married Tjitske Dani Noppen, a nurse; they had no children and later divorced. After a year teaching at Trinity College, Dublin, he was recruited to the Commonwealth Treasury and arrived in Canberra in 1960. Characteristically untidy and energetic, he was prominent in debates among policy officers in the back bar of the Hotel Canberra—once challenging John Stone, then a rising Treasury officer, to a foot race of 20 miles (32 km) to Lake George. Stone won.
