Jasper Rees
Jasper Rees is an English journalist and writer. He specialises in writing about the arts and is best known as the authorised biographer of Victoria Wood.
Rees has been a journalist since 1988 and has written mostly for the Daily Telegraph and The Independent. He is also the author of five books, including Let's Do It, the authorised biography of Victoria Wood.
Rees has written about his Welsh heritage in his 2011 memoir Bred of Heaven. The book caused controversy when Rees was upset by a review in the Daily Mail by journalist Roger Lewis, who called Welsh a "moribund monkey language". Member of Parliament Jonathan Edwards also referred the review to both the Press Complaints Commission and the police.
In 2010 Rees released his book I Found My Horn, which was adapted for the stage. He also wrote a biography of Florence Foster Jenkins in 2016, which was adapted into the film of the same name starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant.
