Longtime Designer, Author, Educator, Leader
Patrick Michael Redmond, M.A., an Irish American graphic designer, artist, author, former art director and retired educator, has received an inaugural 2021 Irish Echo Arts & Culture Award.

The honorees are “arts and culture heroes of the pandemic from across Irish America who have kept our spirits high since March 2020 with their music, acting, art and cultural endeavor,” according to The Irish Echo website. Honorees received a medal and a certificate and appeared on the special awards program.
