Opis

Be Seeing You description Quoting Elia Kazan, Hubert O'Hearn says of himself, 'It's been a long and frequently lively life.' As a journalist he has served as a successful newspaper columnist in Canada for a dozen years. As a reviewer he has contributed to and edited for some of the most prestigious literary and music magazines in North America and Europe. He has founded and directed a repertory theatre, written six hit plays, been a speechwriter and essayist in the field of Human Rights, and in his heart of hearts he claims to be a sportswriter. He has equally known considerably personal pain. Hubert O'Hearn has, not once but twice been dead on an operating table. Much more hurtful than that he lost his beloved fiancee Kimberly to the effects of a brain aneurysm. He has written and spoken clearly and unflinchingly about the resultant battle with Depression that led him to emigrate to the beautiful land of his childhood dreams - Ireland. Many people have urged Hubert O'Hearn to write a formal memoir, however he refuses to because, 'I know how all the stories end.' Besides that, his life can be found in his work. For a writer, work is always personal. As Patrick McGoohan's The Prisoner would say, Be seeing you."
