Anna McPartlin

Book for an event


Anna McPartlin is a novelist and scriptwriter. Her previous incarnation as a stand-up comedian left an indelible mark. She describes herself as a slave to the joke and finds humour and humanity in even the darkest situations. Anna lives in Wicklow with her husband and animals.

Anna McPartlin's experience of losing her parents at a young age has given her a profound understanding of loss, surviving it, and making the very best of life. Before becoming a full-time writer Anna was, amongst other things, a stand-up comedian and a claims adjuster. As well as writing novels, she also writes TV comedy drama. She is in her mid-thirties and lives just outside Dublin with her husband.
