Behan, Brendan 1923-1964. Irish dramatist.
His early experience of prison and knowledge
of the workings of the IRA (recounted in his
autobiography Borstal Boy 1958) provided him
with two recurrent themes in his plays. The
Quare Fellow 1954 was followed by the
tragicomedy The Hostage 1958, first written
in Gaelic.
