SUMMARY:
Michael Banim (5 August 1796 – 30 August 1874) was an Irish short story writer. Brother of John Banim, he was born in Kilkenny, and died in Booterstown.
Around 1822 John Banim broached to Michael his idea for a series of national tales. Michael assisted John in the O'Hara Tales, where he used the name "Abel O'Hara," and there is difficulty in allocating their respective contributions. While John was the more experienced writer, Michael provided material based on his social observations. They revised each other's work; according to Patrick Joseph Murray's Life of John Banim. Michael wrote in such hours as he could snatch from business, and was the principal author of about thirteen of the twenty-four works attributed to the brothers, including Crohoore of the Bill-Hook, The Croppy, and Father Connell.
CROHOORE OF THE BILL-HOOK, THE FETCHES, THE NOWLANS, JOHN DOE, PETER OF THE CASTLE.
