Person
Renee Hollis is an author and photographer who enjoys living in the country. She specializes in non-fiction photograph books and is currently working on a book featuring interviews with people living in New Zealand who are over 100 years old. Renee's love for pigs began when a litter of piglets was born on her birthday and one was named after her. Then she was introduced to A.A. Milne's Piglet before getting to know Wilbur, from Charlotte's Web. But it was a little pig called Babe that captured her heart in the 1995 movie of the same name. Over the years, Renee has discovered that pigs are playful, friendly, sensitive, intelligent animals. Oink is her tribute to these amazing creatures.
