Grace Speight (Sebtober 10, 1975) is an Author, Student and Food and Beverage Attendant from Colac, Australia. Grace is the daughter of General Mark Speight, a notable General in the Australian Armed Forces and Persephone Speight, an animal activist.
Early Life
Grace was abandoned by her parents at a young age, as her father was stationed in Papua New Guinea and her mother relocated to Persia to protest Syria's abuse of pack mule's. As a result, Grace was raised in a hippy commune in the outer regions of Colac. Grace stayed at the commune until she was sixteen,m only leaving when it became apparent that the commune would run out of banana's.
After leaving the commune, Grace took up work as chicken feeder. It is around this time that she discovered her love of breadcrumbs, later providing her with the inspiration for her novel 'Jerry B and the Crumb Crew'.
While working as a chicken feeder, Grace enrolled in the year 12 class at St Helen's School for the Tall in Moorabbin. She performed well as a student, particularly in Horse Studies where she attained the maximum study score of 50.
Upon graduating from St Helen's, Grace enrolled in a Bachelor of Education at Deakin University in Geelong, where she is currently completing her penultimate year.
First Books (1995-200)
Grace's first book, was a picture book called 'How To Eat a Chicken' was published in 1995. The book was met with moderate success, largely hampered by harsh reviews. Reviewers noted the boring storyline and the poor drawings (which Grace had drawn herself) as the main reason why this book should never have been published.
Undeterred, Grace published 'Dirt and Other Infections' in 1998. Once again, Grace's poor drawing ability prevented her from attaining much commercial success.
Jerry B and the Crumb Crew onwards (2000 - Present)
'Jerry B and the Crumb Crew' was published in 2000. Learning from her previous mistakes, Graces third book contained photos of the chickens she fed, rather than drawings. This pleased the critics and the book was a great success throughout Australia and South East Asia, selling in excess of 150,000 copies.
