There are few inventions in the history of modern civilisation as important as the printing press.

A lot has changed over the years of course, but there is still abundance of printing and publishing houses around the world and of course, here in Ireland.

  • Michael O’Brien - Founder and publisher of O’Brien Press
  • Claire Hennessey - co-founder and publisher at Banshee Press
