A prolific creative writer since childhood, Behan refocused upon writing in 2016, and performed regularly at the London Irish Centre, Camden. He was interviewed in 2018 by the Irish Post as part of their London Calling podcast series. Daniel Tobias Behan's first poem to be published by a poetry journal was 'Love Of Mine' in 2019. It featured in Foxglove Journal, proving to be hugely popular. He has since had further poetry published via Foxglove Journal, Writeresque Literary Magazine, and Channillo. Collaborating with esteemed actor, playwright, and poet Nora Connolly (author of the celebrated play 'Nora And Jim') and filmmaker Patrick O'Mahony in 2020, the trio produced the short film The Visit, based upon Behan's 2019 poem of the same name. Daniel is the son of the late Brian Behan, who was the brother of writers/musicians Brendan and Dominic, and was father to writer Janet Behan (Daniel’s sister) – with Brian Behan being the author of Mother Of All The Behans (based upon the life story of Daniel's grandmother Kathleen Behan), adapted successfully for the stage from the 1980s until present.
