Jess Robinson is a multi-award-winning comedy impressionist and classically-trained singer who has dazzled audiences across stage, screen, airwaves, and a wide array of corporate events.
She has just had published her first book - Life is Rosi: Rosi and Me at 23.
It takes the diaries of her grandmother, Rosi, at the age of 23 when she was escaping Nazi Germany and contrasts them with Jess's own diaries at that age as a millennial woman in the early 00s.
'This is a unique juxtaposition of the shatteringly honest diaries of two Jewish girls fighting to survive ― Grandma Rosi in the Holocaust and two generations later Jess in today's grubby showbiz world. It appalled, uplifted and delighted me. I wish I’d written it.' Miriam Margolyes
It's a fascinating read, and she's started to doing keynotes on the same subject, and has even lined up a TedX talk for later on in the year.
