Swearing-in ceremony of Victoria's 28th Governor
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Australia, has appointed Her new representative for the State of Victoria. On 8th April 2011 His Excellency Alex Chernoc, AO, QC was sworn-in as Victoria's 28th Governor.
The Honourable Alex Chernov, AO, QC (*12th May 1938) is a Jewish Australian jurist. He was born in Lithuania and migrated with his family to Salzburg, Austria where he commenced his schooling. In 1949 his family migrated to Australia.
His grandfather had held a post there in the imperial administration. But when the Russian revolution came he returned to Russia to become a minister with the white administration, which had monarchist associations and was opposed by the Red Army. Chernov's grandfather was eventually captured and murdered by the reds, so his grandmother returned to Lithuania.
