Dictionary of New Zealand biography (NZ)

More than 3000 biographies of New Zealanders of historical note, originally published in the printed Dictionary of New Zealand biography series and in the parallel Maori-language series, Nga Tangata Taumata Rau. The editorial policy aims to include not only figures of national importance but also those who were representative in a regional, tribal, ethnic or occupational context. The site does not include people who are alive.
