American Revolution museum’s new ‘Irish Soldier’ exhibit has it all: Love. Death. Psychodrama.
The Philadelphia Inquirer
by Stephan Salisbury
R. Scott Stephenson, president and chief executive of the Museum of the American Revolution, calls the Cost of Revolution: The Life and Death of an Irish Soldier, a “psychological thriller of museum exhibits.”
Curator Matthew Skic, who put the ambitious show together for the museum, is a little less dramatic. He says, “It speaks to the trans-Atlantic impact of the American Revolution. What happens here, what happens here in Philadelphia, matters on a global scale.”

BREXIT ON THE MENU AS IRISH BUSINESS CHAMBER HOSTS NORTHERN IRISH DIPLOMAT
It’s one man’s job to take the long view, to inform Northern Irish government officials of the range of possibilities, depending on that eventual outcome.
Dr. Andrew McCormick, director of general international relations, is Northern Ireland’s senior civil servant. He spoke before the Irish American Business Chamber & Network in Philadelphia recently to share what he knows—about Brexit’s potential impact on the peace process and how the lingering political uncertainties might affect the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic, along with the impact on the economy and U.S. businesses that have headquarters or operations in the north.
In a conversation before the roundtable, McCormick explained his mission during his stateside tour of Irish organizations.
