Kathy Lette

Kathy Lette has made a career out of lightly fictionalising every stage of her life, from puberty to menopause. She is a celebrated and outspoken comic writer who has an inimitable take on serious current issues. She is the author of 20 bestselling novels including Puberty Blues, which was made into a major film and a TV miniseries. She cites her career highlights as once teaching Stephen Fry a word and Salman Rushdie the limbo, and scripting Julian Assange's cameo in the 500th episode of The Simpsons.
