Remembering a Kiwi Icon


Author:  Stacey Collins

On our screens and in our hearts forever

Still raw in our minds is the passing of Sam Neill. He was a creative of the highest order, an actor, businessman and author.

Many Kiwis didn't just fall in love with Sam Neill the actor, but with Sam Neill the person. His character transcended the screen and jumped right off the pages. We've seen how deeply people feel that connection through the continued support of both local readers and those abroad who are purchasing Sam's moving 2024 memoir, Did I Ever Tell You This?

Thank you, Sam, for sharing your story and the New Zealand story with the world.
