Irish Music in America: Continuity and Change . Mick Moloney. Ph.D. Dissertation
(Folklore) University of Pennsylvania, 1992. Though he now downplays this work,
for its time Mick Moloney’s doctoral dissertation was a groundbreaking piece of research on traditional music in America. It is somewhat useful as statistical ethnography, but the heart of the material is the fieldwork interviews Moloney conducted with a succession of seminal Irish emigrant players in New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago, and Moloney’s own commentary on the music.

Cherish The Ladies: Dirty Linen #59
The original idea behind Cherish the Ladies was simple: a series of concerts highlighting the contributions of women to Irish music in America. In 1983, folklorist and musician Mick Moloney had a brainstorming session with the directors of New York's Ethnic Folk Arts Center, Martin Koenig and Ethel Raim. Moloney drew their attention to the extraordinary number of young American women involved in Irish traditional music.

"Did your Mother come from Ireland?" was a documentary written and presented by Conrad Fischer and Mick Moloney for RTE,
the Irish national tv broadcasting service, documents the "renaissance of Irish traditional music in NYC during the 1970's
and documents the renewed vitality and growth of this music, after years of dormancy, revealed through performances by
second and third generation children of Irish immigrants.

Historic Gathering
The second Sunday of the month is usually the rallying point for Maryland dancers and musicians. A ceili is held in the rather small area on the far side of the bar and the customary crowd probably fits it quite handily. On this day, Baltimore's preeminent traditional musician, box player Billy McComiskey, had invited down Dr. Mick Moloney, an early mentor, to come from New York for his very first J. Patrick's appearance.
Joe Heaney (Seosamh Ó hÉanaí)
Mick Moloney championed Joe's cause through publishing recordings and arranging appearances. Although I do not think he has claimed any credit for it, I am assured that Moloney played a large part in Joe's being awarded The National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Award for Excellence in the Folk Arts in 1982. This Joe saw as the pinnacle of his achievement.
