Louise Rennison is the author of the best selling series Confessions of Georgia Nicolson. The first book, Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging, catapulted Louise into the spotlight of fame and has been adapted into a film. In her twenties, Louise lived in Notting Hill Gate, "in a one bedroomed flat owned by Roxy Music and after an assortment of jobs she enrolled on a Performing Arts course in Brighton. However, after an audition in which Louise was asked to be an embryo, her tutor remarked, "You are obviously a very intelligent girl, Louise, but you must never go on stage again. Your performance made me feel physically sick." Thankfully she didn't listen and her one-woman autobiographical show, Stevie Wonder Felt My Face, won great acclaim and awards at the Edinburgh Festival in the 80s. Lousie has continued to perform her own shows, Bob Marley's Gardener Sold My Friend and Never Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head. She has worked for Radio 4, contributing to Woman's Hour and The John Peel Show, and has written for many comedians.
