Joanna Kozubska was as an assistant governor at Holloway Prison and other custodial establishments for women in the 1970s. She hit the news when borstal girls climbed onto the roof of Holloway demanding that she should not be transferred out and later ‘escaped notice’ after escorting Myra Hindley out of the gates of Holloway for a headline-making walk on Hampstead Heath.
