(Jacky Colliss Harvey)

J.C.HARVEY studied English at Cambridge, and History of Art at the Courtauld Institute of Art. She worked in museum publishing for twenty years, first at the National Portrait Gallery and then at the Royal Collection Trust, where she set up the Trust’s first commercial publishing programme. 
She has worked as a movie extra, as a life-model, and is the author of bestselling non-fiction including 'RED: A History of the Redhead' and 'Walking Pepys’s London'. She also writes for children, under the pseudonym ‘Daisy Bird’. The extraordinary history of the Thirty Years War (1618-48) and of 17th-century Europe has been an obsession of hers for as long as she can remember, and was the inspiration behind the Fiskardo's War trilogy, which begins now with 'The Silver Wolf'.
