		Thorneycroft, who studied and now lives in Winnipeg, is well known in Canada--the list of venues for the exhibition of "Diana Thorneycroft: The body..." attests to the interest that museums and galleries have taken in her photographic work.
		Thorneycroft started with a fire in her belly, though her early ambition was not art-world fame, but a rather desperate desire to get her demons into pictures.
		Thorneycroft is a great collector of specimens and hardware; her fabricated masks are all about mutation, creatures from the borderlands between the barracks and the forest.

		In September and October 1960, Aviation Minister Peter Thorneycroft toured Australia and Canada promoting Black Prince as a "Commonwealth Launcher".
		This lack of interest from the Commonwealth meant that in October 1960, in Paris, Thorneycroft offered Black Prince to France as an element of the European Launcher Development Organisation (ELDO) rocket.
		This would mean, however, that the ELDO rocket, though in effect just a redesigned Black Prince, would use a French second stage rather than one developed from the already-proven Black Knight.
