Shaemas O'Sheel (September 19, 1886 – April 2, 1954) was an Irish American poet and critic. Born James Shields,〔O'Sheel, Shaemas, and Sophocles. ''Antigone'', University of Pennsylvania Press, 1961, p.8〕 he changed his name to an anglicized spelling of its Irish version soon after high school.〔O'Sheel obituary, New York Times, April 4, 1954.〕 He worked briefly for the United States Senate (1913-1916), held jobs with various newspapers, and did publicity and advertising work. Although third-generation〔Adamic, Louis. ''A nation of nations'', Harper, 1945, p.308〕 Irish American and never visiting Ireland,〔 he was active in the Irish independence movement. He was, in his own words, "a very ardent communist and a staunch supporter of the Soviet Union".〔Letter, O'Sheel to Art Young, April 17, 1938, (Shaemas O'Sheel Papers, Syracuse University )〕 However, because he disagreed with Soviet foreign policy, many communist publications (such as ''New Masses'') refused to publish his work.
As a member of the League of American Writers, O'Sheel served on its ''Keep America Out of War Committee'' in January 1940 during the period of the Hitler-Stalin pact.〔Franklin Folsom, ''Days of Anger, Days of Hope'', University Press of Colorado, 1994, ISBN 0-87081-332-3〕
