Joe Craig

About Author

Joe studied Philosophy at Cambridge University (Emmanuel College), graduating in 2002. While there he wrote and performed with the Cambridge Footlights and co-hosted a radio show. He first considered writing as a career in 2003, when he developed the idea for the 'Jimmy Coates' series.

As well as being a writer, he is a musician. He performs as a jazz pianist and singer/songwriter around London. He won 'Most Promising Young Writer' at the Vivian Ellis Prize for his first musical and has since written the music for several shows which have run on the London and Edinburgh fringe.

You can hear some of his pop material through his website, www.joecraig.co.uk.

If he could be an animal, he would be a pigeon so that he could fly round London and only use the tube when he got tired.

He coaches cricket at his local club (Brondesbury CC), where he runs the Under Elevens. They came second in the league this year - and had a lot of fun along the way.

His other interests are - music, watching films, reading, collecting frogs, eating lunch, inventing snacks, Aesop's fables, dancing Tango, playing poker, growing chillies, painting, eating Haribo Sweets, sushi, playing five-a-side football and cricket.

He lives and works in North London.
