Author Biography
Laura Slater is a classic movie enthusiast living and working in London. Her interest in diet and fitness dates to her time at university, where most of her friends seemed to be on a permanent diet. While her day job as an editor of legal and business books continues to broaden her horizons, in the evening she still likes to come home, pour a glass of wine and watch Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina for the umpteenth time. She is also the author of Vintage Secrets: Hollywood Beauty.
