Caoilinn Hughes was born in Galway, Ireland in 1985. With BA and MA degrees from the Queen's University of Belfast, she moved to New Zealand. After some years working for Google, running a small business, and writing novels on the weekends, she enrolled in a Ph.D. at Victoria University of Wellington. A selection of poems from her first book, Gathering Evidence (forthcoming in 2014) won the 2012 Patrick Kavanagh Award, and poems from the collection also won the 2013 Cuirt New Writing Prize, the 2012 STA Travel Writing Prize and the 2013 Trocaire / Poetry Ireland Competition.
