Joe Kearney is a regular contributor to RTE Radio One s Sunday Miscellany and Lyric FM s Quiet Quarter. He is an award winning independent documentary maker. His radio documentary No Cure for Mickey Finn was a prizewinner in the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival in New York and was shortlisted in the Prix Europa in the same year. His documentary Bullfight at Inchicore is RTE’s 2010 entry in the same competition. Joe is currently working on a documentary that follows a group of wannabe cowboys as they follow the Colorado trail, the American Rockies.
His first collection The Bend of the Road will be published later this year. His work has been included in many anthologies including the latest Quiet Quarter and Sunday Miscellany collections. Two short stories that were written during the 05 and 06 Summer Fests have been included in the collection of new writing Last Orders and a short story written during the 2004 event was short-listed for the Francis MacManus award in 2005. A memoir piece also inspired by the workshops in Strandhill will be published in a forthcoming anthology published in conjunction with Ireland’s Own and Original Publishing.
Joe is an Arts graduate who majored in English Literature and is currently completing a PhD in Creative Writing at UCD.
