Transcription
Early life and career
Born in Chelmsford[4] she is one of the daughters of the actor Geoff Hinsliff. She attended Queens' College, Cambridge, graduating with a first-class degree in English.[5]
After two years at the Grimsby Evening Telegraph from 1994 to 1996, Hinsliff joined the Daily Mail, where she was successively a news reporter and health reporter, before becoming a political reporter in 1997,[5] and finally chief political correspondent the following year. She joined The Observer in March 2000, initially in the same post, following Andy McSmith, who had joined The Daily Telegraph.[6] Hinsliff was the youngest political editor of a national newspaper when she was promoted in December 2004, this time succeeding Kamal Ahmed, who had been her immediate superior at The Observer since her original appointment.[5][6][7]
Although Hinsliff loved the job, she resigned in late September 2009 "to get a life", to move "out of London to write, think, do some projects I never had time for" and "to spend more time with her husband and son".[2][7]
Career since 2012
Hinsliff's book Half a Wife (Chatto & Windus) was published in 2012. Eleanor Mills in The Sunday Times wrote that it is elevated "from the normal middle-class whinge" by "the rigorous analysis she brings to the wider forces that have shaped modern family life and how they might be re-sliced so that families can live differently". Hinsliff, Mills writes, "calls for a non-gender-aligned sharing out of domestic tasks".[8]
Hinsliff spent a period at The Times until July 2014, before becoming a columnist on The Guardian the following September.[9]
In July 2012, she began as editor-at-large of Grazia magazine contributing interviews and columns.[10] Hinsliff contributes to BBC and Sky programmes.
Personal life
Hinsliff is married to James Clark, a public relations professional.[11]
