Early life
Moran was born in Brighton, the eldest of eight children; she has four sisters and three brothers. "His father, who is of Irish descent," "did session work with several well-known bands in the Sixties" and later "was forced to the couch by osteoarthritis." Moran grew up in a three-bedroom council house in Wolverhampton, which she compared to the Hunger Games.
Moran attended Springdale Junior School and was then educated at home from the age of 11, after attending Wolverhampton Girls' High School for only three weeks. She and her siblings received no formal education from their parents; the local council permitted this as long as home education is permitted in England. In addition, they were "the only hippies in Wolverhampton," Ms Moran said. The children enjoyed simple games, such as throwing mud at their house. Moran's childhood was happy, but she decided to leave home as soon as she was allowed to do so at the age of 18.
Personal life
Moran married Peter Paphides of the Times in Coventry in December 1999; the two children were born in 2001 and 2003.
Journalism and writing career
Moran was convinced that she'd be a writer throughout her teenage years. She won a Dillons young readers' competition for an essay titled Why I Like Books at the age of 13. She received the Young Reporter of the Year award at the age of 15. She began her writing career at the age of 16. Melody Maker, the weekly music publication, began as a journalist. At the age of 16, Moran wrote The Chronicles of Narmo, inspired by being part of a home-schooled family.
She began her television career in 1992, hosting Naked City, a two-part series that showcased a number of up-and-coming British bands, including Blur, Manic Street Preachers, and the Boo Radleys. Johnny Vaughan appeared on Naked City with her co-presenter Vanessa Vaughan.
Moran's upbringing inspired her television drama/comedy series Raised by Wolves, which premiered in the United Kingdom on Channel 4 in December 2013.
Moran earned his degree from the University of Aberystwyth in July 2012. She was named as one of Britain's most influential women in the BBC Woman's Hour 2014 poll in April 2014.
How to Build a Girl, Moran's semi-autobiographical book, was set in Wolverhampton in the early 1990s. It's the first of a planned trilogy, to be followed by How to Be Popular, and finally, How To Change The World. Moran co-wrote the screenplay for the film version of the same name with John Niven. Beanie Feldstein, Alfie Allen, Paddy Considine, and Sarah Solemani appeared on the film, directed by Coky Giedroyc, as an executive producer on the film.
