Catherine Elizabeth "Caitlin" Moran ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|k|æ|t|l|ɪ|n|_|m|ə|ˈ|r|æ|n}};[1] born 5 April 1975) is an English journalist, author, and broadcaster[2] at The Times, where she writes three columns a week: one for the Saturday Magazine, a TV review column, and the satirical Friday column "Celebrity Watch".

Moran is British Press Awards (BPA) Columnist of the Year for 2010, and both BPA Critic of the Year 2011 and Interviewer of the Year 2011.[3] In 2012, she was named Columnist of the Year by the London Press Club,[4] and Culture Commentator at the Comment Awards in 2013.[5]

Early life

Moran was born in Brighton, the eldest of eight children; she has four sisters and three brothers. Her father, who is Irish, was described by Aida Edemariam in The Guardian as a former "drummer and psychedelic rock pioneer" who became "confined to the sofa by osteoarthritis".[6] Moran lived in a three-bedroom council house in Wolverhampton with her parents and siblings, an experience she described as akin to The Hunger Games.[7]

Moran attended Springdale Junior School and was then educated at home from the age of 11, having attended secondary school for only three weeks.[8] She and her siblings received no proper formal education from their parents; the local council allowed them to do so, as they were "the only hippies in Wolverhampton".[7] The children frequently occupied their time with simple games, such as throwing mud at their house.[7] Moran describes her childhood as happy, but revealed she left home as soon as she was able to do so at the age of 18.[7]

Journalism and writing career

Moran was convinced throughout her teenage years that she would become a writer.[7] At the age of 13 in October 1988 she won a Dillons young readers' contest for an essay on Why I Like Books and was awarded £250 of book tokens. At the age of 15, she won The Observer's Young Reporter of the Year.[9] She began her career as a journalist for Melody Maker, the weekly music publication, at the age of 16.[10] Moran also wrote a novel called The Chronicles of Narmo at the age of 16, inspired by having been part of a home-schooled family.

In 1992, she launched her television career, hosting the Channel 4 music show Naked City,[11] which ran for two series and featured a number of then up-and-coming British bands such as Blur, Manic Street Preachers and the Boo Radleys. Johnny Vaughan co-presented with her on Naked City.

Moran's upbringing inspired her TV drama/comedy series, Raised by Wolves, which began airing in the UK on Channel 4 in December 2013.

In July 2012, Moran became a Fellow of the University of Aberystwyth.[12] In April 2014, she was named as one of Britain's most influential women in the BBC Woman's Hour power list 2014.[13]

Moran's semi-autobiographical novel, How to Build a Girl (2014), is set in Wolverhampton in the early 1990s. It is the first of a planned trilogy, to be followed by How to Be Famous, and concluding with How To Change The World.[14] Moran co-wrote the screenplay for the adaption of the same name alongside John Niven. Moran will also serve as an executive producer on the film, directed by Coky Giedroyc, starring Beanie Feldstein, Alfie Allen, Paddy Considine, and Sarah Solemani.[15]

Feminism

In 2011, Ebury Press published Moran's book How to Be a Woman in the UK. As of July 2012, it had sold over 400,000 copies in 16 countries.[16]

Moran is a supporter of the Women's Equality Party.[17]

In March 2017, in an article she wrote for the Penguin publishing house, Moran suggested that young girls should not read books written by men at all, or "at least" until they are "older, and fully-formed, and battle-ready", singling out the books written by:

...the Great White Males; Faulkner, Chandler, Hemingway, Roth. The canonically brilliant. The men in them are brilliant, clever, awkward, compelling, complex – their stories drag you in, their voices are unstoppable. The dazzle and flair is undeniable.[18]

Moran claimed that the fact she never read books by men when she was younger made her, "perhaps", happier in herself, more confident about writing the truth, and less apt to run herself down for her appearance, weight, loudness and unusualness "than many, many other women".[18]

Twitter

In August 2013, she organised a 24-hour boycott of Twitter in protest against the organisation's perceived failure to deal adequately with offensive content posted, sometimes anonymously, on public figures' Twitter feeds.[19]

In 2014, her Twitter feed became a controversial addition to the list of English A-Level set texts.[20] In June 2014 the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism reported she was the most influential British journalist on Twitter.[21]

Personal life

In December 1999, Moran married The Times rock critic Peter Paphides in Coventry; they have two daughters, born in 2001 and 2003.[22]
