Elizabeth Darcy Jones is one of a handful of tea poets in the world, perpetuating the ancient Chinese and Japanese tradition of writing poetry about the multi-faceted aspects of tea. Elizabeth's first volume of poetry, Simply This, now sold out, was described by Tony Parsons as 'a delightful mixture of prose and poetry...'. A former City voice coach for Cazenove & Co (and once described by The Daily Telegraph as its 'Queen Bee'), Elizabeth was commissioned to write the post-war biography of wartime S.O.E. coding genius, Leo Marks OBE. She regularly performs her tea and other poems in London, and was a featured guest at The Seven Dials Club as part of the London Alternative Fringe Festival in 2010.
