This is an interview with Ambassador Eli)abeth Frawley Bagley done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. To begin with, could you tell me when and where you were born and something about your family. A,LEY2 Yes. I was born in Elmira, New York, the second of eight children. My father was, first a family court judge and later, a county judge for o.er 35 years and is a lifelong Democrat. In fact, since I was fi.e years old my brother and I campaigned for him A because a judge in New York runs e.ery four years on a ticket, and then, of course, he became nonpartisan after he went on the bench. My mother grew up in Manhattan, the daughter of Irish immigrants, who also can.assed and campaigned for democratic candidates, so it>s ob.iously in my bloodE %: Are there upstate Democrats. I didn/t 0now that. A,LEY2 In Elmira, New York there aren>t many, but he was and is, .ery much. My older brother 0e.in is a lawyer in New York and worked for Mayor Ed 0och for years. Another brother is a priest. A typical Irish-Catholic family2 I ha.e four sisters and three brothers. -nfortunately, there are no doctors, as we ha.e no medical eBpertise whatsoe.erE So, I grew up in an Irish-Catholic family that was political in the sense that e.ery year on election day we would all go out to dinner together, because most of the time it was too eBpensi.e for such a large family. My parents instilled in us at an early age the belief that politics was an honorable profession and that .oting was a right of our citizenship and a responsibility. My mother told us that her parents could not wait to relinCuish their Irish citizenship, which was then under the Fueen of England, and .ote as Americans. %: 1here did you go to school. A,LEY2 I went to school in Elmira at Our lady of Lourdes, a Catholic school, from kindergarten through eighth grade, and then to Notre Dame High School. Then I went to Regis College in (eston, Massachusetts, also a Catholic school. And finally, I graduated from ,eorgetown Law School, so I spent my entire educational life in Catholic schools. %: Did Nuns run the place in elementary school. A,LEY2 Yes, the Sisters of Mercy. %: How did you find them. A,LEY2 Some good, some bad, like e.eryone else. I ha.e to say it was a wonderful training, although my children are now going to an Episcopal school because it is a pri.ate school and the best one here in (ashington. (e didn>t ha.e a choice where we were going. (e went to Catholic school all the way through college. Our parents were .ery much into Catholic parochial school education. At that time there were no teachers other than nuns and priests. Now a Catholic school would ha.e lay people. %: 4ou started school when. A,LEY2 I was born in 1452 and started school at the age of four or fi.e. %: Just to pic0 up a little social history. 1as there much of a cleavage between Catholics 5 and non5Catholics in Elmira in those days or not. A,LEY2 I would say we were .ery isolated. I ne.er set foot in a Protestant church or Hewish synagogue. In fact I think we were told not to. I can remember knowing then that they were different. (e were taught that we were the one true faith. I don>t remember being taught any kind of anti-Semitism, but Hewish friends of mine said that their Catholic friends had been taught that the Hews killed Hesus. I ne.er heard that, although I always knew they were different from us by religion and customs2 they went to synagogue on Saturdays when we were going to Mass on Sundays. I went all through the Catholic school system and knew only a few token Protestants, but no Hews. I had a .ery insulated, .ery middle American eBistence. There were se.eral blacks in our high school. (e were from the most affluent part of Elmira, New York, if you could call it that. It was a community of about a 100,000 population with a lot of people from Corning ,lass, etc. There were ethnic pockets that were interesting, which I didn>t know until I went to high school. In my elementary school we were mainly from the same area but there were Irish, Italians and Polish people. My Irish grandmother li.ed with us and was always characterizing the Italians as being this and the Poles that. She would say to forget the rits and the Scots because they were the blackest of all Protestants, meaning they were anti-Irish and anti-Catholic. She brought with her great stories from Ireland, but also a lot of ethnic prejudices, usually laced with great wit. (e always had knowledge of what my heritage was from her. My mother grew up in New York City, the daughter of two Irish immigrants. Her father was a chauffeur. My grandmother>s family had ele.en and they all came o.er. Two brothers were priests. So, we were really raised as .ery religious Irish, much more than any of my friends. My mother was first generation. E.en though we were not in the city we were more kind of ethnically oriented than the rest of Elmira. If they were Irish, they had been there for generations. %: Did you pic0 up anything from your Irish grandmother about how wonderful the British were. A,LEY2 Yes, eBactly the opposite. My grandmother wasn>t in.ol.ed in the famine because it was in the 18A0s and 1850s. She came o.er because that was what e.eryone did. They immigrated to somewhere and mostly to the new world, New York or oston.

    WELCOME Welcome to the 57th Anniversary Dinner of the Ireland-U.S. Council. I wish to offer greetings to all our members and their guests on this important anniversary when we celebrate our continued engagement of the core mission we have set for ourselves of strengthening closer commercial connections and enhancing better business bonds between America and Ireland. As it happens, this is a Golden Age for the economic relationships between our two countries. This past year has been a year of great Brian W. Stack economic progress in both the United States and in Ireland. From the neat vantage point which we in the Ireland-U.S. Council occupy, we are afforded a generous, big-picture overview of the state of Ireland-U.S. economic relations. The very important business links that connect America and Ireland in capital investment, trade, tourism, and technology transfer have never been in more robust health. The Ireland-U.S. Council is a membership organization. We must always underline how thankful we are for the support and participation received during this past year from Council members and from our benefactors, patrons and sponsors. The support you have offered has been crucial in sustaining the organization’s roster of programs and activities during this past year. Because of your support, we have been enabled to continue our work which we believe makes a worthwhile contribution to the betterment of the economic circumstances of all the people in the United States and in Ireland, north and south. We continue to believe, with good reason, that improved and expanded investment, trade and tourism in both directions between America and Ireland betters the lives, livelihoods and economic circumstances of everyone.
