Inspired, like so many, by Sir David Attenborough, Kathryn Jeffs decided from a very early age that she wanted a life working with wildlife. She got her break working with the team who made Attenborough's Trials of Life and went on direct and produce on Life of Mammals, Planet Earth and Wild China. For the series Frozen Planet, she directed and produced the ‘Winter’ film and led the Antarctic teams who filmed wave washing killer whales and the deadly ice brinicle. More recently she survived filming the epically stormy series, Wonders of the Monsoon. Currently she is producing the series, Attenborough’s Passion Projects, to be broadcast as part of a celebration of Sir Davids 90th birthday. She is a STEM ambassador, working to share her enthusiasm of science with the younger generation, and a learner mum.
