One of the most exciting new protagonists of the genre, a flawless "soulist" so to speak, had little self-confidence and trust in her uniqueness at the beginning of her career. Instead of Georgia Willacy, that's her real name, she preferred to be called Pip Millett as an artist, a mixture of her nickname and her mother's maiden name.
