Biografi
Ní Chuilleanáin er datter av Eilís Dillon og professor Cormac Ó Cuilleanáin. Hun studerte ved University College Cork og The University of Oxford. Hun bor i Dublin sammen med mannen, Macdara Woods, som hun har en sønn med, Niall. Hun er Fellow av Trinity College Dublin og emeritus professor av School of English der hun begynte å arbeide i 1966. Hennes vide akademiske interesser (særlig hennes spesialiet Renessansens litteratur og hennes interesse for oversetning) avspeiles i hennes dikt. Hun gikk av med pensjon i 2011, og en del av hennes dikt er pensum for examen artium i Irland.[2] Ní Chuilleanáin er grunnlegger av litterærtidsskriftet Cyphers. Hennes første diktsamling vant Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award i 1973. I 2010 var The Sun-fish vinneren av den kanadiske International Griffin Poetry Prize og hun ble nominert til Poetry Now Award.
