Cassandra Caroline Mary Jardine (16 November 1954 – 29 May 2012) was a British journalist, best known as a contributor to The Daily Telegraph over a twenty-year period. Born in London, the youngest of three daughters, her parents were Anne, a Conservative councillor in Kensington and Chelsea, and Christopher Jardine, a civil servant.[1] In 1972, as the Under Secretary at the Department of Trade and Industry, although later "vindicated", he was accused of "negligence" after a car insurance company collapsed.[2] Cassandra Jardine was educated at the Godolphin and Latymer School and read English at Newnham College, Cambridge.[1] After Jardine graduated from Cambridge University in 1976, she became an assistant to the Daily Telegraph contributor T.E. Utley and later spent a period working for Cosmopolitan,[3] Unilever's internal publication and Business magazine.[4] She returned to the Daily Telegraph on 29 March 1989[5] as a feature writer and interviewed several hundred public figures over the years before latterly writing about health for the newspaper. She was diagnosed with lung cancer in July 2010, specifically adenocarcinoma.[6] She began to write about her illness, and won the Lung Cancer Journalism award in 2011,[7] and the Excellence in Oncology award in the same year.[5] She wrote two books about parenting How to be a Better Parent: No Matter How Badly Your Children Behave or How Busy You Are (2003); and Positive Not Pushy: How to Make the Most of Your Child’s Potential (2005).[1] Jardine was married to the actor William Chubb; the couple had five children, 2 sons and 3 daughters who were aged between 13 and 22 at the time she died.[8] The Daily Telegraph has founded the annual Cassandra Jardine Prize for young women journalists in her honour.[9]References1. ^1 2 [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/9298392/Cassandra-Jardine.html Obituary: Cassandra Jardine], telegraph.co.uk, 29 May 2012 {{DEFAULTSORT:Jardine, Cassandra}}2. ^Cassandra Jardine [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/3609679/Like-Dr-Kelly-my-father-took-the-blame.html "Like Dr Kelly, my father took the blame"], telegraph.co.uk, 6 January 2004 3. ^[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/cassandra-jardine/9297454/Cassandra-Jardine-loses-fight-with-cancer.html "Cassandra Jardine loses fight with cancer"], telegraph.co.uk, 29 May 2012 4. ^"Telegraph pays tribute to feature writer Cassandra Jardine who has died of cancer", Press Gazette (Wire blog), 30 May 2012 5. ^1 [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/cassandra-jardine/9298267/Cassandra-Jardine-1954-2012.html "Cassandra Jardine: 1954–2012"], telegraph.co.uk, 29 May 2012 6. ^Cassandra Jarine [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/8067143/Cassandra-Jardine-on-her-cancer-diagnosis-The-day-my-life-changed-for-ever.html "Cassandra Jardine on her cancer diagnosis: The day my life changed for ever"], telegraph.co.uk, 7. ^[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/cassandra-jardine/8547949/Cassandra-Jardine-wins-award-for-writing-about-her-lung-cancer.html "Cassandra Jardine wins award for writing about her lung cancer"], telegraph.co.uk, 31 May 2011 8. ^Alison Roberts [https://www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/london-life/life-after-cassthe-courage-of-cassandra-jardine-who-died-from-cancer-last-month-has-been-an-inspiration-to-her-family-7899053.html "Life after Cass...the courage of Cassandra Jardine who died from cancer last month has been an inspiration to her family"], Evening Standard, 29 June 2012 9. ^{{cite web|title=Cassandra Jardine Prize|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cassandrajardineprize/|work=Daily Telegraph}} 7 : 1954 births|2012 deaths|Alumni of Newnham College, Cambridge|British journalists|British non-fiction writers|Deaths from lung cancer|People from Camberwell |
