Year of birth?

edit

The current year of birth given here as 1942 has been questioned, and in the National Archives of Australia there is a passenger landing card from 1972 filled out by Sydney-based designer "Carla Maria Zampatti" which states her birth date as 19 May 1938: see Incoming passenger cards - Sept-Dec 1972 - YOSHIIKE-ZANETTE, jump to page 3219. Numerous media references state the birth date as 1942, and age at death as 78, which should trump primary source documents like immigration cards, although it's possible these outlets got the date/age from Wikipedia. Just thought I would mention this to keep an eye out for death notices and similar which can confirm one of the dates. --Canley (talk) 03:36, 3 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
