Mary McCartney

In 2012, McCartney collaborated with mobile phone manufacturer Vertu and children's medical charity Smile Train. Traveling to Beijing and Volgograd, McCartney photographed four children who benefited from the rehabilitative surgery provided by Smile Train. The Constellation Smile project culminated in a photography exhibition in London on 12 June, followed by an international tour.

McCartney has written two vegetarian cookbooks, Food: Vegetarian Home Cooking (2012) and At My Table: Vegetarian Feasts for Family and Friends (2015).

On 11 August 2008, McCartney gave birth to her third son, her first with director boyfriend Simon Aboud. On 12 June 2010, McCartney and Aboud were married in a private ceremony in London at the Marylebone Register Office, the same location where her parents were married in 1969. On 3 September 2011, McCartney gave birth to her second son with Aboud.

In April 2005, the couple announced their separation, but stated that it was only temporary and they wished to reconcile for the sake of their two sons. Although there was no public confirmation of a divorce, by 2007 she had returned to using her birth name professionally.

In 2001, McCartney produced the television documentary Wingspan, a story of her father's post-Beatles musical career, focusing on her parents' band Wings. She also interviews her father in the film.

Mary McCartney is a professional British photographer. She was a photo editor for the music-book publisher Omnibus Press and in 1992 began taking photographs professionally, specializing in portrait photography. Because her paternal grandmother and her mother died of breast cancer, she began campaigning for breast cancer awareness in the United Kingdom. As a result, she became close friends with Cherie Blair, wife of former UK prime minister Tony Blair. This led to McCartney being chosen to take the first official photo of the prime minister and his wife with their fourth child, Leo, born 20 May 2000. Before this, the most well-known photos of hers were the last photographs taken of her mother, three weeks before her death. McCartney has taken portraits of Sam Taylor-Wood, Ralph Fiennes, Jude Law, and of her sister Stella McCartney, who is a fashion designer.

In 1995, McCartney's brother James introduced her to director and television producer Alistair Donald. After dating for three years, they set a wedding date for May 1998. Upon the death of her mother, the wedding was postponed and McCartney and Alistair Donald were married on 26 September 1998. Mary Anna McCartney was then known as Mary Anna McCartney-Donald. On 3 April 1999, McCartney gave birth to her father's first grandchild, Arthur Donald, who is the eldest of eight grandchildren. The Donalds' second son, Elliot Donald, was born on 1 August 2002.

After the birth of her sister Stella, McCartney's parents formed the rock group Wings, with whom she and her siblings travelled the world until 1980. She grew up to be a vegetarian and is passionate about animal rights like the rest of her family.

Mary Anna McCartney (formerly McCartney-Donald; born 28 August 1969) is an English photographer and Global Ambassador for Meat Free Monday and Green Monday. She is the daughter of musician and singer/songwriter Sir Paul McCartney and photographer/musician Linda McCartney.

McCartney was born at Avenue Clinic in London on 28 August 1969 and named after her paternal grandmother, Mary McCartney. She is the first biological child of Paul McCartney of the Beatles and photographer Linda McCartney, and Linda's second child.
