Autorenporträt
Michael Cassidy was born in 1950 and raised in Limerick, Ireland. The date of his death has not yet been determined. Eager to escape the realities of his Irish upbringing and Jesuit education, at nineteen, he talked his way onto a Dutch vessel in Dunmore East and worked his passage to Holland. He then joined the Dutch fishing fleet in the North Sea. He has traveled extensively throughout his life. Apart from Ireland and Holland, he has lived in Canada, the United States, Costa Rica, and Brazil. He now lives on an island in the Philippines. His life experiences, many of which are shared in this memoir, include being a failed but eventually successful father, a permanently unsuitable husband, a homeless street person, a hopeless drunk but subsequently a non-drinker, an uninterested insurance clerk, an incompetent deckhand, a decent stage actor, a dish washer, waiter, bartender, then restaurant owner, a non-practicing attorney, a newspaper owner and publisher, a TV presenter, a movie producer, a good friend, a bad enemy, a failed then successful businessman, and now, the author of The Longfellah's Son: An Almost True Irish Story. His most cherished life achievement are his three wonderful children. His next novel, More Almost True Irish Stories, about the Irish immigrant experience in America will be published in 2018.
