About Derek Fanning

A passionate believer in nature, the right to hunt, and spiritualism, Derek words as a journalist in the Midland Tribune newspaper in Birr, Co. Offaly, Irleand.

An avid hillwalker, writer and singer, Derek Fanning is a man always with a song to sing, a story to tell, and a poem to recite.

To the American, he is probably the ideal Irishman!

A journalist in the Midland Tribune newspaper, Derek has many books published in the poetry and travel genres.

His latest "The White Phoenix" contains much of his newer work, focusing on poetry.

Dereks CD "A Voice of Birr" has met with a good reaction, containing classical and traditional songs and melodies.
