Tracy Spiers landed on earth as man landed on the moon in the summer of 1969. Starting her journalist career as a cub reporter on a local newspaper, Tracy has worked in all forms of media for the past three decades including many years for the BBC. She also has a first-class BA (Hons) and MA in illustration and now marries her two professions, helping children learn about curriculum subjects using illustration and playfulness as a way in. Small with a big imagination, Tracy enjoys bringing history to life in a fun and colourful way and creating something extraordinary with and for her audiences. A Modern Mrs Bennet, Tracy lives in Gloucestershire with her husband Rog and their five daughters. She can be found running along canal paths or sipping cappuccinos with her sketchbook. www.tracyspiers.com
