<b>Eakin</b>; born 26 March 1940) is a New Zealand novelist, poet, scriptwriter and short story writer. She grew up in <a href="/wiki/Northland_Region" title="Northland Region">Northland</a>, and worked as a librarian and a freelance journalist early in her career. She began writing novels in the late 1970s, with her works often featuring young women subverting society's expectations, inspired by her involvement in the women's liberation movement. Her first novel, <i>A Breed of Women</i> (1979), caused controversy for this reason but became a bestseller in New Zealand. Over the course of her career, Kidman has written eleven novels, seven short-story collections, two volumes of her memoirs and six collections of poetry. Her works explore women's lives and issues of social justice, and often feature historical settings. </p><p>Kidman is an influential figure in New Zealand literature and has been active in New Zealand's literary community, including by serving as the president of the <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_Society_of_Authors" title="New Zealand Society of Authors">New Zealand Society of Authors</a> and the <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_Book_Council" class="mw-redirect" title="New Zealand Book Council">New Zealand Book Council</a> and as a creative writing tutor.
