Lucy wrote 23 entries for Women from Hackney's History, a book published by The Hackney Society and Hackney History, which has become a notable part of yourlondon's literary scene. The book sold out within a year and was reprinted in the summer of 2022.
This compelling book features 113 illustrated biographies of women from Hackney’s history who lived, worked, were born, or buried in today’s borough of Hackney. These women, drawn from widely differing backgrounds, may no longer be with us, but their stories span five centuries and reflect the changes in the lives of women and Hackney itself.
Volume 2, also co-written by Lucy and published in 2025, spotlighted an additional 113 women from Hackney's history.
