Colleen Maria Lenihan is a New Zealand fiction writer and screenwriter.

Background

Lenihan (Te Rarawa, Ngāpuhi) is a New Zealand writer of Māori and Irish descent.[1] She spent fifteen years in Tokyo before returning to New Zealand.[2] Lenihan studied at The Creative Hub and Te Papa Tupu,[3] and is currently a writer for TV show Shortland Street. She has also written for drama series Ahikāroa.[4]

Career

Her short form work has appeared in Pantograph Punch, Newsroom, the New Zealand Herald, and elsewhere. Following the 2022 launch of her collection of inter-linked short stories, Kōhine, she appeared in the 2023 Auckland Writers Festival.[5]

Kōhine has been described as "Tokyo gothic"[6] by Newsroom, as "something special" by Kete,[7] and by NZ Booklovers as providing the reading experience of a novel.[8] The book was influenced by Colleen's years in Tokyo, and by the loss of her only child.[9]
