BiographyBorn in Waterford, Gallagher went to school in the Convent of the Sacred Heart in Roscrea, Co. Tipperary and in Bregenz, Austria. She went to college in both the University of London and University College Dublin. After college Gallagher worked initially as a speech and language therapist, an occupation which led to the publication of one of her non fiction books. Gallagher also studied drama in London, in LAMDA under Frieda Hodgson.[1][2][3] She was commissioned to write essays for The Irish Times, Irish Medical Times and journals. Gallagher took up writing screenplays and stage plays. The result is a prolific list of productions which have been staged around the world as well as broadcast by RTÉ and the BBC.[1][3][4][5][6] Her varied work from play to speech therapy, as well as working with prisoners, has led her to be a visiting lecturer at universities across the globe. Gallagher has been deeply involved in the organisations of her craft, leading her to being a member of Irish PEN, both on its committee and as vice president, on the Irish Writers' Union committee as well as a council member of the Society of Irish Playwrights. Over the years she has won a number of awards.[1][3][5][6] Her husband is Gerhardt Gallagher. They live in Dublin. Awards{{unreferenced section|date=December 2018}}
