Deborah and Eileen

As children, Eileen and Deborah lived on a farm in Suffolk - as teenagers they both flew the nest to live in London and abroad. Deborah started her career in journalism at Business Week in the United States and has worked for The Guardian and the New York Times. She has lived and travelled extensively in Europe, Asia and South America. She is currently a senior managing producer on the Lost Women of Science podcast. Before travel writing Eileen headed up the global PR for The Economist and Reuters and worked as a freelance documentary and entertainment assistant producer for the BBC Channel 4, LWT and worked in PR for Walt Disney, and Andrew Lloyd Webber spending two years in New York as a film publicist. She lives in Suffolk with her partner Roger, two donkeys, a pony, two cats, Peacocks and Guinea Fowl.
