Australian Aborigine Actor David Ngoombujarra Dies
Tuesday, 19 July 2011

Australia's best-known indigenous actor David Ngoombujarra, whose films included “Rabbit-Proof Fence” and “Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles,” has died. He was 44.

Ngoombujarra was found Sunday in a park in Freemantle, a port city near Perth on Australia's west coast. He later died at a Freemantle hospital. The cause of death has not yet been determined, but police say it was not suspicious.

Ngoombujarra won Australian Film Institute awards for his role in the movies “Black and White,” in which he played an Aborigine convicted of killing a white girl, and for “Blackfellas,” based on the Australian bestseller “The Day of the Dog” by Archie Weller.

He received a third AFI award for his part in the Australian television show, “The Circuit.”

Ngoombujarra was born in 1967 and became an actor in the late 1980s.

His last film was “Australia,” from 2008, in which he co-starred with fellow Australians Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman.
