About Us

Jackie is a former tv journalist and is now an artist. She lived in Nairobi, Kenya in the mid 1960’s. She was given a bushbaby as a pet one Christmas and formed a deep bond with her charge that continued as she traveled to boarding school in Scotland and life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Her father wrote a children’s book “The Bushbaby” based on this relationship. The book was made into a movie and later became a popular animated series in Japan. She has in recent year’s done volunteer stints with African Conservation and Biosphere in South Africa and Namibia.
