During his tenure his company made Brideshead Revisited, The Jewel in the Crown, Prime Suspect, and Cracker. But he was fired in 1995 at the age of 40 as a result of corporate restructuring.

Ninie Hammon
I was born in Socorro, New Mexico, sometime shortly after the earth cooled off. It’s clear that from the outset my parents never intended for me to amount to anything. How could I? With a name like “Ninie?” Please.

My early career took me to rural Zambia where I was a nurse-midwife for a volunteer agency. The role was challenging – hospital care, rural clinics and teaching midwifery theory to students. The life allowed me to see the world in a whole new light. I listened and learned from other cultures. While my children were young, I went back to university to study journalism. We were living in Texas, and good old Scottish nosiness gave me a break before I had even graduated. One of my lecturers said she didn’t know when the school had desegregated. It wasn’t rocket science but, using the old university newspapers, I found names and tracked down the first three black graduates. The series I wrote led to a job at the local paper and eventually to the
