Part of The Frances Condell Papers

Audio tape containing two interviews with Tom Tobin. Side A contains an interview broadcast on a Radio Luimní ‘Community Roundabout’ programme the week after the visit of Pope John Paul to Limerick in late October, 1979. Condell gives her view on the visit and what it meant for her. The interview also refers to highlights of Condell’s mayoralty, in particular the visits of President Kennedy, Mayor Dick Daley of Chicago, Cardinal Browne, Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia, and Senator Ted Kennedy. Side B contains an interview apparently taped at Condell’s home. Condell recalls events from her childhood, her love of literature and the Irish language, her marriage, the war years, her involvement in the Red Cross as a volunteer and later as a paid organiser, and her involvement with the National Blood Transfusion Service. The interview terminates abruptly as the tape ends.
