Michael Feeney Callan Harris. His biography of Robert Redford ("Robert Redford: The Biography"; Knopf, 2011) was chosen by the "Sunday Times" as one of its recommended Best Books of 2011. In 2013, he published his second volume of poetry, "An Argument for Sin". Callan was born to Michael Callan, an engineer, and Margaret (née Feeney) in Drumcondra, Dublin. After living in London, Callan resettled in Dublin with his wife Ree and their two children. He frequently spends time at Châteauneuf de Grasse, where he paints and sculpts. Callan started writing in his teens, publishing poetry in David Marcus' "New Irish Writing". His first
Callan (TV series) was attributed to Thames Television (the result of the merger). Overall, the series was popular with audiences, running between 1967 and 1972. The closing episode of the 1969 series saw a severely under-pressure Callan get shot, with a clever publicity campaign following to ensure that viewers cared whether the character survived or not (of course, he did). The last two series were in colour and proved as popular as ever. A cinema film simply entitled "Callan" followed in 1974, directed by Don Sharp. Callan was last seen in the 1981 feature-length television story made by ATV, entitled "Wet Job". Though
