Belfast social reformer Mary Ann McCracken has, in recent years, risen in popular consciousness ─ thanks in large part to the initiative of Belfast City Council in raising a statue in her honour and to the Mary Ann McCracken Foundation. However, McCracken would probably be relegated to a footnote in the history of Belfast and the United Irish Movement were it not for her biographer, Mary A. McNeill.
Ruth Taillon has recently completed a biography of Molly McNeill. She will talk about Molly McNeill’s life and work and her many important contributions to the social, political and cultural life of this island.
