Glenn Colquhoun wields a stethoscope for his day job as GP in Otaki, and a pen for his other life as a poet, living by the beach. His view is that poetry and storytelling can express the ache of the human condition and this is something that the medical model too often ignores. Glenn recently returned from a Fulbright exchange in the US where he worked on the poetry-medicine linkages. He won the 2004 Prize in Modern Letters and two prizes in the 2003 Montana New Zealand Book Awards – best poetry book and readers’ choice for his collection "Playing God".
Held in the TelstraClear Club, North Hagley Park Events Village.
