Josephine Cox
Biography
Josephine Cox was born in Blackburn, one of ten children. At the age of sixteen, Josephine met and married her husband Ken, and had two sons. When the boys started school, she decided to go to college and eventually gained a place at Cambridge University. She was unable to take this up as it would have meant living away from home, but she went into teaching – and started to write her first full-length novel. She won the ‘Superwoman of Great Britain’ Award, for which her family had secretly entered her, at the same time as her novel was accepted for publication.
Gilly Middleton
Biography
Josephine Cox was born in Blackburn, one of ten children who never forgot her own experience of hardship. She had a long and happy marriage to her husband, Ken, and was immensely proud of her family and her grandchildren. Josephine’s books have sold over twenty million copies worldwide, and she said of her success, ‘I could never imagine a single day without writing. It’s been that way since as far back as I can remember.’ Her stories live on through Gilly Middleton who worked with Josephine for many years and writes new stories inspired by her world.
