Liza Grantham was born in 1965 in the East Midlands brewery town of Burton-on-Trent. After gaining a BA (Hons) in Linguistics, French and Hindi from the University of York and a PGCE from Derbyshire College of Higher Education she returned to her hometown where she taught at Anglesey Primary School for sixteen years. In 1997 she was awarded an MBA with distinction in Educational Management from the University of Nottingham. After meeting her now husband Gary she moved to Las Palmas, Gran Canaria to teach in a British school. In 2011 the couple moved to a remote hamlet in rural Galicia where they raise chickens, grow vegetables and expect the unexpected in their idyllic yet highly unpredictable rural life.

The peace and beauty of the natural surroundings provides the perfect backdrop for stimulation and creativity, and Liza has plenty of opportunity for writing in a range of genres. She has published three books in the 'Mad Cow in Galicia' memoir series: 'Mad Cows and Englishmen', 'How Now, Mad Cow?' and ''Til Mad Cow Comes Home'. She is also the author of 'A Play by Any Other Name...' in which the complete Shakespeare plays are summarised in everyday verse. Her prize-winning poetry has been published in several editions of 'The Good Life in Galicia' anthology series (ed. S Bush).

    5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and so cleverly written.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 1, 2023
    Having read Liza Grantham's Mad Cow memoirs I noticed that she had also published this book of Shakespeare's plays written in verse. I loved it. It's so cleverly written and and very entertaining. Actually, it's quite a feat to have done this. How I wish it had been available when I was teaching. I'm certain my students would have loved reading the plays they were studying converted to verse! Well done Liza.
