Journalist, writer, interviewer and memoirist Lynn Barber claims no skill in art herself but loves hanging out with artists and has devoted much of her career to interviewing them.

Lynn Barber was born in 1944 and studied English at the University of Oxford. She began her career in journalism at Penthouse, and progressed to the Independent on Sunday, the Observer, the Telegraph, and the Sunday Times, as well as Vanity Fair. She has won six British Press Awards and two volumes of her celebrated interviews have been published.

An Education, Lynn's memoir about her schoolgirl affair with a con-man, was made into an Oscar nominated film in 2010, with a screenplay by Nick Hornby, starring Carey Mulligan. A Curious Career published in May 2014, continued the story of her life as a journalist and interviewer. A Little Art Education documents her fascination with art and artists.

'This book feels like a marvellous cocktail party, packed with the painters and sculptors Barber has interviewed over the years:...everyone, naturally, is smoking.' Lisa Hilton, The Spectator

'A Little Art Education [is a] highly entertaining celebration of the famous artists she has encountered over the course of a long and extremely successful career as a newspaper interviewer.' John Maier, The Times, Saturday Review
