Hanna Lovett was born in Ballydesmond in 1910 and emigrated to the US in the late 1920s. Speaking to Treasa Murphy, she recited two poems she learnt  nearly a century ago. You’ll also hear from Hanna’s grandson, Daniel, who says the family are delighted by the attention Hanna has been getting after she received an honorary high school diploma this summer and from Hanna’s daughter, Ann.
