Dawn O’Porter

Dawn O’Porter is brilliant. Not only has she fronted smart, thought-provoking documentaries, but she is also an author, including of the Sunday Times bestseller, The Cows. Now she has followed it up with So Lucky, a funny, honest, story of three women - and the gulf between how we present ourselves on social media and how life really is. I loved talking to her - she was so honest and warm, opening up about the confidence crisis she experienced when she first moved to LA, how she balances writing with having two young children and the very moving real-life inspiration behind So Lucky.
