Simon O'Connor (actor)

O'Connor began his stage career in the late 1960s after reading an article about Dunedin's Globe Theatre.

Since this time, O'Connor has appeared as an actor on stage, radio, and television, and notably in the role of Herbert Rieper in Sir Peter Jackson's film Heavenly Creatures, for which he was nominated for Best Male Performance in a Supporting Role in the 1995 New Zealand Film and Television Awards.

In 1992, O'Connor became a teaching fellow at the University of Otago's Theatre Studies Department, specialising in playwriting.
