Lisa Lovatt-Smith was only 18 when she began a career at Vogue magazine. Lisa published five books on interiors, including London Living. She also published two books on fashion photography. In 2002, after a trip to Ghana, her life took a dramatic turn. Lisa was so moved by the experience of living with the orphans that decided to help in a more sustained and substantial way, leaving her glamorous lifestyle, and moving permanently to Africa where she founded OrphanAid Africa.
