Hippy Dinners - A memoir of a rural childhood

Informationen zum Autor Abbie Ross is a British author and psychotherapist. Her first book, Hippy Dinners, a funny and poignant memoir of her bohemian childhood in 1970s North Wales, has been optioned by Baby Cow, who are developing it into an 8-part television series. Before turning to writing, Abbie had a successful career as a producer at Aardman Animations, the acclaimed studios behind Wallace & Gromit and the film Chicken Run. Today, she divides her time between her thriving psychotherapy practice in Bristol, and her writing, and finds that the two careers complement each other perfectly.
