Appearances
Well, I was born in Long Island, New York in May 1957 to Irish immigrant parents.
My father was an immigrant from County Roscommon.
My mother was from County Kerry.
My father was in the US Air Force at the time.
He was doing a four-year stretch to get some technical training and to accelerate his American citizenship.
At about two years of age, we left New York.
So I don't remember New York at all.
Moved to Chicago.
I grew up basically in Chicago.
When I was 13, came back to Ireland for a full summer, loved it.
And then the following year, when I was 14, I came back to live in Ireland for good and go to school here.
I mean, to go to school in Ireland, yeah.
How was it at school in Ireland at the time?
Well, it was strange, you know, leaving an American high school, going to a...
A country school down at Roscommon that my father went to.
In fact, one or two of the same teachers were there, you know.
But I enjoyed it.
I loved it.
I took to it.
You know, I had a sister who went to boarding school and didn't like it at all.
