History
Tap the gear icon above to manage new release emails.
Joanna grew up in Surrey, Great Britain, always loved the outdoors, forests, wildlife - climbing trees, helping her Dad work on the car, tinker in the shed, mow the lawn and make bonfires. She also loved chopping up wood for the fire and one year her father bought her an axe for Christmas. She studied Psychology at Hull University and has an Msc. in Occupational and Organisational Psychology from Surrey University. She now works in communications and public relations for environmental organisations. Joanna first discovered the Lumberjills while working for the Forestry Commission in 2012. With a wild, adventurous spirit and passion for forests, she felt a connection with their story. Like most people, she had previously never heard of the women who took on tough ‘men’s work’ foresting and logging during WW2. Since then she has interviewed and corresponded with over 60 women who served as Lumberjills. She has given dozens of interviews on TV, radio, in newspapers and magazines and more than 50 public talks to increase recognition of their wartime work.
