Jamie Rix

Jamie Rix is an English children's author, as well as a comedy writer, and a television and radio producer. He studied Drama and English at the University of Kent while he worked as an assistant stage manager at the Royal Court Theatre. He was hired by the BBC to write and produce comedies for television and radio, and helped create Radio Active, The Wow Show, The History of Rock, Alas Smith and Jones, etc.

He published his first children's book Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids in May 1990, which led to three sequels, a cartoon adaptation for ITV and several other children's books with their own series, such as the Alistair Fury series and the Johnny Casanova books. The Grizzly Tales franchise has received many awards and nominations for several branches: the book that started it all won a Nestle Smarties Book Prize, and both cartoon adaptations have been nominated for BAFTA awards, whereas the Alistair Fury live-action adaptation won a BAFTA in 2008.
