Three New Zealanders: Janet Frame is Endeavour Television's first documentary in the series of three made to mark United Nation's International Women's Year in 1975 - the other two are about Dame Ngaio Marsh and Sylvia Ashton-Warner.

Frame discusses the sources for her stories, energizing experiences in America (several periods spent in East Coast writers' colonies), herself as a young writer (winning a year's subscription to Oamaru Athenaeum), and her family (her Mother's love of poetry), amongst other things.
