Simon King OBE

Simon King was born on the 27th of December 1962 in Nairobi, Kenya. His father John King was at that time working for FBO (Forces Broadcasting Overseas) but he later went on to become a respected producer/director for BBC television. Perhaps Simon’s love of wildlife began in Africa; it certainly influenced his first career choice which was to become an elephant when he grew up! Simon has now given up on the idea of becoming an elephant, but has never given up on the idea of ensuring the survival of this and every other species that inhabits this planet.
