Abstract
After travelling to America from Ireland in the aftermath of the 1916 Easter Rising, the socialist journalist and activist Jack Carney soon settled in Duluth, MN, and was editor of the weekly Truth newspaper from 1918 to 1920 before departing for Butte, Montana. This lecture will highlight the key role that Mina Carney, Jack�s Chicago wife, played in the production of Truth, and will provide a potted biography of a fascinating and neglected artist who has four sculptures in the Permanent Collections of the Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin, Ireland. This lecture will be dedicated to the memory of Richard Hudelson, a former philosophy lecturer at UMD, who in 1994 wrote an article called �Jack Carney and The Truth in Duluth� for an Irish periodical.
