In 1992 she went to live in the Middle East where she worked as a steward for Bahrain’s national carrier. Bree went on to become a producer of 35mm television commercials and documentaries, writing copy and scripts all over the Gulf and Middle Eastern region. Since then Bree has lived and worked in broadcast and print media in Canada, the United States and England. In 2004 she left the UK for Tanzania, where she lived for a year with the Maasai, working for a small charity. There she lived with no electricity and no running water and this made her homesick for South Africa. Sadly Bree passed away in 2010 when the Libyan aeroplane she was flying on crashed. She was on her way to London to discuss her next book deal. .view less
