Lowson Anne Collins, Lady Cullen (formerly Fraser; born 20 July 1951) is a New Zealand former politician of the Labour Party.
[2] In the early 1980s Fraser joined the Labour Party and became a branch secretary in the East Cape electorate.
Her selection, according to the then Whakatane branch chair Margery Rennie, was because "...she's got plenty of guts and was prepared to take on an unpopular candidacy no one else was interested in.
This was despite locals (including National Party members) thinking she was a hard worker for the electorate particularly in the aftermath of both Cyclone Bola and the 1987 Edgecumbe earthquake.
[2] Before leaving parliament she enrolled at Massey University to study for a Masters degree in education, intending to return to teaching.
