Tom Lennon was a pseudonym for an Irish writer who felt it necessary to conceal his identity so as not to jeopardize his teaching position at a religious high school in Dublin. He is the author of When Love Comes to Town and his book for adults, Crazy Love. He lived in Ireland until his death in 2002.

His fiction is noted for its understanding of gay politics in modern society and for the sympathetic and honest treatment of the characters it depicts.
