Kim Walker (bassoonist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kim Walker is a bassoonist of Scottish/American origins, who studied with Roger Birnstingl at the Geneva Conservatory. Following a career performing internationally, she became involved in education. After 10 years at Indiana University, Walker became Dean of Music at Sydney Conservatorium of Music in 2004.^[1]

Professor Walker was stood aside for three months in 2007 whilst under investigation by industrial lawyer Anthony Britt,^[2]. THe University has now confirmed that it has full confidence in and support of Professor Walker. In an investigation, the University found one minor case of "inadvertent but inaccurate footnote references (in an article in a non-scholarly journal) which was resolved following the spontaneous and unprompted action of Professor Wallker". ^[3]
