Memoir of 'gritty, glamorous and unpredictable life'

THE fascinating life of a woman who has been a restaurateur, model and antique dealer has been captured in a new memoir.

- WILLIAM TELFORD

Annabelle Gregory's extraordinary and memorable journey through a “gritty, glamorous and gloriously unpredictable life” is revealed in the new publication The Art of Becoming.

The book, published by Exeter's Winter and Drew Publishing, will be officially released at a special event on Friday, November 14, from 5.30pm to 8pm, at Brownston Gallery, in Modbury.

Annabelle will be there to sign copies of her hardback book, which charts her astounding life from her beginnings as a model working with legendary movie directors Cy Endfield and Dick Lester, to navigating the shadowy nightclub scene of Soho where her husband's path crossed with the notorious Kray twins.

Annabelle’s life has been anything but ordinary, whether she’s crashing a flame-painted hearse into a post box or appearing in five different television adverts during a single commercial break, her stories pulse with the energy of someone who has truly lived.
