Tom Coffman is a graduate of the Kansas University School of Journalism. He originally came to Hawaii at age twenty-two as a reporter for the Honolulu Advertiser (1966) and then the Honolulu Star Bulletin (1968-1973), where he became chief political reporter and wrote the widely read political history Catch A Wave. Since 1973 he has been an independent writer, author and documentary film producer/director. The underlying theme of his work is the social and political development of Hawaii in context of the Pacific Rim.

He is the recipient of the State of Hawai’i Award for Excellence in Literature. He received the Hawaii Publishers' annual award for Best Nonfiction for three of his books: Nation Within, The History of America’s Occupation of Hawaii; The Island Edge of America; and I Respectfully Dissent; A Biography of Edward H. Nakamura. Among his many other community-based projects, in the early 1980s he produced and partially wrote a widely disseminated multimedia plan of Hawaiian cultural revival (OHA Culture Plan: Draft One). He served as writer and editor of former Gov. George R. Ariyoshi’s biography, With Obligation to All.

His numerous documentaries prominently include O Hawaii, From First Settlement to Kingdom (aired by PBS); Nation Within (PBS); Arirang, The Korean American Journey (PBS), First Battle: The Battle for Equality in Wartime Hawaii and Ninoy Aquino and the Rise of People Power (PBS).
