Kester Berwick (1903–1992) was born in Adelaide and died an expatriate on Corfu in the Greek islands. Born Frank Perkins, he took the name Kester Baruch because a friend told him that would sound "less plebeian", then changed it again at the beginning of World War II when he was living in Switzerland. An Australian actor and writer, Berwick, who was gay, spent the final 23 years of his life in Greece. His life is the subject of one of the storylines in Robert Dessaix's novel Corfu.
