Stephen Fry
'If there is a heaven he will be the funniest man there.' Clive Anderson

Daily Mail
A fashion entrepreneur in the early Sixties, Wendy met Peter Cook while studying graphic design in Cambridge and they became engaged during the Edinburgh Festival run of Beyond the Fringe in 1960. Married in New York three years later, with Dudley Moore playing the organ, Wendy became a renowned hostess among a wide circle of talent in Manhattan and later at the couple’s Hampstead home. She is the mother of Cook’s two daughters and developed a pioneering interest in macrobiotic cookery in the search to improve the health of her younger child.
