Neil McKenty (December 31, 1924 – May 12, 2012) was an English-Canadian radio and television broadcaster and author. ==Personal life== The son of a hardware store owner, McKenty was raised in Hastings, Ontario, near Peterborough. He was schooled at a Jesuit boarding school in Kingston, Ontario. He was educated at the University of Toronto, where he earned a bachelor's degree in Canadian history, and the University of Michigan, achieving a master's in communications.〔〔(About Neil « Neil McKenty Weblog )〕 For fifteen years, he was a teacher and ordained priest with the Jesuit order. He was on the editorial staff of the Jesuit weekly America and wrote a much-acclaimed biography of former Ontario Premier Mitch Hepburn. In 1970, McKenty left the Jesuits and accepted a position doing public relations with the Special Olympics. He met his wife, Catharine, on the dance floor and married her just ten days later.〔 McKenty died at Montreal General Hospital on May 12, 2012, at the age of 87, after a short illness. A former colleague eulogized him as "one of the most complicated and interesting men who ever lived."〔http://blog.fagstein.com/2012/05/21/neil-mckenty-eulogy/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neil McKenty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
