About the Author

Pamela Todd has a first class degree in English literature and an MA in History of Art. Her researches into literary and artistic communities for her Ph.D thesis inform the present book. Her varied career began at Punch magazine (where George du Maurier once lampooned the Pre-Raphaelites with the kind of relish Private Eye nowadays reserves for Damien Hirst) and continued in publishing, as an editor and later literary agent, for twenty years. Her journalism has appeared in Punch, Cosmopolitan, and She magazine. Her eleven books include The Impressionists' Table and Bloomsbury at Home, both published by Pavilion.
