Ayun Halliday is an American writer and actor.
She is best known as the author and illustrator (or, as Halliday herself terms it, "the chief primatologist") of the long-running zine The East Village Inky. The zine got its name from Halliday's living in New York City's East Village, and "Inky" being the nickname of her then-infant daughter India.
Her first graphic novel, Peanut, was published in December 2012 and was positively reviewed by The New York Times.
