1982 Press Photo Eileen O'Casey, wife of great Irish playwright, Sean O'Casey

Eileen O'Casey flew into Mitchell Field Sunday night to bring her husband in Milwaukee. "I am the widow of Sean O'Casey," she said when asked about the state of the Irish theater today. "I speak about Sean because I know about Sean." Sponsored by the Shamrock Club of Wisconsin and the Catholic Knights Insurance Society, she will make appearances at Milwaukee schools through Friday. She married O'Casey, the great Irish playwright, in 1927 when she appeared in an English production of his "The Plough and the Stars." She and O'Casey continue to work and live in England until his death in 1964.
