Biography
Jack Monroe is a British food writer, journalist, and activist born on 17 March 1988. She rose to prominence when a post on her blog A Girl Called Jack went viral, later renamed Cooking on a Bootstrap. The blog's success launched her into public life as a campaigner on poverty issues, particularly hunger relief. Monroe has published seven cookbooks that focus on "austerity recipes" and meals which can be made on a tight budget, making her work distinctive in food media for its direct engagement with economic constraint rather than aspiration. She has written for publications including The Echo, The Huffington Post, and The Guardian, extending her reach beyond cookbook publishing into journalism and commentary. As a writer, Monroe combines practical food instruction with activism—her work is fundamentally about making nutritious eating accessible to people with limited income. Born under Pisces, her life-path 1 suggests her role as an individual pioneer in reframing food writing around economic justice. She holds British citizenship.
