Author descriptionPhilippa Gregory was an established historian and writer when she discovered her interest in the Tudor period and wrote the internationally bestselling novel The Other Boleyn Girl.

Her other great interest is the charity that she founded nearly twenty years ago: Gardens for The Gambia.
