Jo Whiley
Groovy Mother of Four.

Jo Whiley, DJ combines being a mother of four with presenting a prime-time show on Radio 1. She talks to Jane about being a private person in a very public world, growing up in Northampton with her sister who has Cri-du-chat syndrome, how her father’s love for his ghetto blaster led to her passion for music and how John Peel made her feel that it was OK to have children within the cool music industry.


My World in Motion by Jo Whiley is published by Virgin Books.  ISBN: 9781905264766
