After moving to Galway from County Clare aged two, Patricia Burke Brogan grew up surrounded by books and music.
As Patricia grew up, her interest in art, music and writing continued and, despite being told she should focus on one area, she refused to choose between her great loves, as they "expressed different sides" of her.
Burke Brogan wrote two more plays, Requiem of Love and Stained Glass at Samhain (2002), and has also released a number of poetry collections.
Requiem of Love, Stained Glass at Samhain, Décollage New and Selected Poems, and Eclipsed are all published by Wordsonthestreet.
Her "Memoir with Grykes & Turloughs", also published by Wordsonthestreet, was launched by Sabina Higgins at Galway Education Centre in 2014.
