Born in Galway, in the Republic of Ireland in 1941 and educated in Dublin and London. Exploring the world, she lived in Zimbabwe and Zambia and came to South Africa  as a newly wed.  She lived in Cape Town between  1967 and 1983, where she became the mother of twin daughters and continued her career as an advertising copywriter.  The death of her younger brother prompted her first narrative poem, BAR and GER. It was  adapted for theatre and thus began her  career as a playwright .  She  says her best work was written (and continues to be written) in Cape Town, mainly because of the wonderful start she got at The Space Theatre.
