Richard Cobourne writes with a production background in the broadcast, corporate, music and global events industries. Many well-known TV, radio and music friends help him with deep background to ensure the tittle-tattle of real-life show-business and the law are accurately portrayed - including Spice Girl, Melanie Chisholm; broadcaster and voice-artist, Alan Dedicoat; and former UK Police Superintendent Andy Pullan.

He began his career working for the BBC initially in the sound department of radio, TV and outside broadcasts. In 1990 he co-formed On Screen Productions Ltd, which he sold five years ago to pursue a career as voice artist, conference facilitator and consultant creative producer... and to enable him to write full-time.

He has worked in the business-of-show all over the world for over forty years (one year taking 91 flights!) -- and as a result has a deep understanding of the shenanigans of the industry.

Richard Cobourne lives with his wife in the Wye Valley in the South East corner of Wales and Fuerteventura, Canary Islands.
