Bridget Jones - Part I: Introducing Helen Fielding



Helen Fielding

The famous author of Bridget Jones Series was born in February 19th 1958 in Yorkshire. She studied English at St Anne’s College, Oxford. Interested in acting and being part of a revue she met the best British comedian Rowan Atkinson and one of my favourites screenwriters/directors Richard Curtis in 1978 and started a friendship. In the following year, she began to work at BBC as a regional researcher. In 1985, Helen became a producer on a live satellite broadcast from Sudan for Comic Relief. Many facts of her life before 1990 are really fantastic, showing a woman with passion for discovering new things.

From 1990 to 1999, she worked as a journalist for important newspapers including The Sunday Times, The Independent and The Telegraph. In 1995, her job at The Independent was the best choice she had ever made, there she had a column about single life that was the first step to write Bridget Jones’s Diary (1996). Although the well-known book of Helen Fielding is Bridget Jones’s Diary, the first book of her novelist career was Cause Celeb (1994). This brief bio of Helen was just to show a little bit of her track and a preparation for the next posts.
