Rock N Roll Nanny is an absolutely wild and fascinating read from author, former nanny and tour manager Sally Arnold.
Former Norland Nurse Sally Arnold was the first female tour manager in the rock business, and the first woman to have a tattoo put on her mastectomy scar. This is her memoir.
In 1971, Sally Arnold takes a nannying job in Paris that will transform her life. Her charge is Mick Jagger’s daughter Jade and she is soon running more than bath-time… She is working for the giants of rock as the first woman tour manager in the business.
What’s it like to prepare Christmas lunch with Mick Jagger? To go clubbing at Tramp with The Who’s crazy drummer Keith Moon? To deal with the WAGs in a band’s entourage?
When Sally moves on to organising charity events, she has to manage other larger-than-life personalities such as Billy Connolly and Rowan Atkinson. Sally also handles famous names from Princess Diana and the Duke of Edinburgh, to Mikhail Gorbachev and Poet Laureate Ted Hughes.
How did Sally survive in this world of rock and roll?
Rock N Roll Nanny is an absolutely fantastic read. Sally has had a phenomenal career. The book highlights it all in great detail. It’s very easy to see why she became such a respected tour manager earning the respect of some of the biggest names in the industry.
