Genevieve Webster
After graduating in 1988 from Norwich, Genevieve Webster moved to London to study for a part-time MA Illustration at Central St Martin’s. She decided not to complete the course and left to work for Faber and Faber before going via Pentagram into children’s publishing.
In 2002, Genevieve met Michael De Souza, a Rastafarian author and swimming instructor who had an idea for a children’s book about swimming and asked Genevieve for advice. Together they created Rastamouse, an award winning, reggae playing crime fighting mouse who along with his Easy Crew, have leapt from the pages of the popular children’s books into a stop motion animation TV series for CBeebies
