PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Fanny Mills grew up in Hampstead, a stone’s throw from the Heath and was educated locally and then at North London Collegiate School, before attending Oxford University in the 1980s. Her first career was at the V&A Museum, where she worked in the Exhibitions Department helping to create, amongst others, Streetstyle, an exhibition of sub-cultures from Zoot suits to Mods and beyond. After moving to Devon with her husband, she raised three children and joined the theatre scene, writing and performing in community plays exploring themes of exclusion, colonisation and isolation in the rural community. -- Fanny Mills
“Unputdownable” – Beth MacHattie, Cultural commentator and former Director of Communications at Sotheby’s and English Heritage. “I am staggered by your skill in describing and analysing the various strands of your family and communicating so movingly what you think of them.” Professor John Micklewright, Author of The Opening Country “I’ve been glued to the book. It’s a triumph – very emotional of course, but what a gift.” Professor Anthony Hyman, Director, Max Plank Institute, Dresden.
