Debra Kelleher

Producer

Wellington-raised producer Debra Kelleher has more than three decades experience in the screen industry. She cut her production teeth in Australia (Neighbours, Sale of the Century), before returning home to work on Shortland Street, then cult teen show The Tribe. Kelleher was at the helm of breakfast TV show Good Morning, and five seasons of flagship TVNZ show Dancing with The Stars.

We hopefully inspire and enable the cast to take risks, feel confident and create the best entertainment for our loyal audience. Also delegate, delegate, delegate, otherwise you DIE! Debra Kelleher on producing five seasons of Dancing with The Stars, in a 2009 TVNZ interview
