Lis McDermott Author

Lis McDermott spent thirty-four years working in music education, latterly as a schools adviser and OFSTED inspector, before leaving education in 2008 to set up her own photography business. She felt at last she might be catching up with her friends who went to Art College! In the 90s, during her time in education, she co-wrote 'Nelson Music', a series of books to support the classroom music curriculum. She published her first solo book in 2014, a photography book called 'Headshot Diva: why your business profile affects your bottom line'. Having awoken another passion, she has now published an autobiography – a book of short stories and four poetry anthologies. She also mentors others to write their books. Lis lives in Royal Wootton Bassett with her husband Conrad, with whom she shares a love of music and films.
