About Gareth Russell
Gareth
Russell was a student at Down High Grammar School in Northern Ireland before he
went onto to study Modern History at Saint Peter's College in the University of
Oxford.
Gareth
is the author of several plays and his first novel, Popular, was originally
published in 2011 and has been updated for republication in 2012. Since 2011,
Popular has been adapted for the stage on several occasions.
Gareth
divides his time between Belfast, London and Connecticut. His accent is
therefore best described as polymorphous, shifting with the greatest of ease
from Northern Irish to English to American. This pleases him greatly. His first
ever word was "shoe" and if he had to have dinner with one person
from history, it would be Anne Boleyn.
