In Ireland, hurling and Gaelic football are amateur through their highest levels. An American journalist immersed himself in the games to seek a renewed love of writing.
Andy Mendlowitz, a 30-year-old burned out by newspaper journalism and unencumbered by family or pets, quit his reporting job and headed to Ireland, without a book contract, to write about the nation's top amateur sportsmen. Hurlers and Gaelic football players aren't paid, aren't traded, and work day jobs before training at night in the hope of qualifying for nationally televised championships.
How can I get in touch with Andy about speaking at my organization's "Speakers' Night". in Worcester, MA. Cost etc.
We are the Worcester Hibernian Cultural Center (AOH/LAOH). Irish-American Organization.
Thank You,
Rosemary Foley

I am trying to get in touch with Andy Mendlowitz - I'm emailing from a newspaper in Ireland, The Clare People in County Clare. I have reviewed his book, but would like to contact him.
