As an editor at HarperCollins, Hachette and others, Val Hudson published a number of ground-breaking non-fiction including the bestselling biography of Billy Connolly by Pamela Stephenson. She has helped the bestselling meerkat Aleksandr Orlov to the top of the bestseller lists with his life story, A Simples Life, and is co-author of the bestselling Arthur: The Dog Who Crossed the Jungle to Find a Home.
