Des Monaghan

Des Monaghan has worked as a producer, executive producer and network executive in both New Zealand and Australia. He is currently one of the directors of Australasian production company Screentime, producers of the internationally-successful Underbelly drama franchise. As a Controller of Programming in NZ in the 1980s, Monaghan had the distinction of suing then Prime Minister Robert Muldoon for defamation.

New Zealand has a world class TV Industry from production to broadcasting, and I'm proud to have been a small part of its history and its future with my ongoing association with Screentime NZ.
