Autorenporträt
John-Paul Flintoff is a writer and broadcaster. His most recent book, Sew Your Own (Profile, 2010), argues that the way we look at clothing influences the way we look at the environment, the economy and life itself. His FT magazine story about Camilla Batmangehelidjh, founder of the London-based charity, Kids Company, helped to change government policy, and the late Nobel winner Harold Pinter said of Flintoff's work that it was 'very good, very funny... in fact, it made me laugh'.
