Limerick Voice reporter Róisín Ní Shuilleabhain spoke to veteran Irish journalist Mary Dundon about her illustrious career and her central role at the heart of academia in the University of Limerick. Dundon's tenure started off in teaching and came full circle as she later spearheaded the BA and MA Journalism courses in UL. As a political correspondent for the Irish Examiner, Dundon fondly remembers her days with the paper and her many endeavors at the forefront of great Irish journalism. This conversation is a wealth of knowledge for young journalists at the start of their career. On behalf of all at the Limerick Voice, we thank Mary for her massive contribution to the paper and programs at UL.
