Shelina Janmohamed

Shelina Janmohamed works in the advertising industry, helping some of the world’s biggest and best known brands. She is also a newspaper columnist writing for outlets such as the Guardian, the Telegraph and the BBC. But while hiding under her superhero’s headscarf, she became an accidental author writing about some of the most important topics facing girls and women today. Like who we are, our place in the world, and most importantly how to decide things for ourselves. A bestselling non-fiction author and a global expert on women’s representation, Shelina is a familiar voice on radio and TV. She is happiest when sipping cappuccino and munching on cookies. She lives in London with her husband and two daughters.
