Grace Ofori-Attah is a psychiatrist turned screenwriter.
Grace鈥檚 unusual career trajectory began with medical degrees at Oxford and Cambridge, after which she became a consultant psychiatrist in Camden and Islington.
Whilst at university she鈥檇 begun writing short stories, but with the demands of studying - and later full-time doctoring - she never quite managed to finish a project so decided to do an about-turn and become a writer proper.
Her first drama series was - appropriately - a medical thriller called Malpractice which aired on ITV, and she subsequently worked on the critically acclaimed Boiling Point. This year she鈥檚 turned her hand to a psychological thriller called Playing Nice, also on ITV.
