Mary O'Hara (born 12 May 1935) is an Irish soprano and harpist from County Sligo. She achieved fame on both sides of the Atlantic in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Her recordings of that period influenced a generation of Irish female singers who credit O'Hara with influencing their style, among them Carmel Quinn, Mary Black, and Moya Brennan. In his autobiography Memoirs of an Irish Troubadour (2002), Liam Clancy wrote how her music inspired and influenced him and others of the Folk Revival period.
Biography
Mary won her first competitions, Sligo's annual Music and Drama singing competition, at the age of eight, and made her first radio broadcast on Radio Éireann before she left school at the age of 16. She went on to perform at Edinburgh International Fringe Festival with the Dublin University Players, BBC's Quite Contrary and The Ed Sullivan Show, before she starred in her own BBC television series. Her first recording contract was with Decca Records. Part of her extensive music career included spending a considerable amount of time on the Aran Islands collecting folk music and acquiring fluent Gaelic.
Mary O'Hara Alsop (July 10, 1885 – October 14, 1980) was an American author and screenwriter.
Biography
Mary O'Hara Alsop was born July 10, 1885 in Cape May Point, New Jersey, the third child of Reverend Dr. Reese Fell Alsop and Mary Lee Spring. O'Hara, who was named after her maternal grandmother, Mary O'Hara Spring (née Denny), grew up in Brooklyn Heights, New York. Her siblings included an older sister, the writer Gulielma ("Elma") Fell; an older brother, Reese; and a younger sister, Elizabeth ("Bess"). She was a descendant of William Penn.
She married her third cousin, Kent Kane Parrot, in 1905 against her father's wishes. They had a daughter, O'Hara Parrot, born in 1908, who died of skin cancer in her early teens, and a son, Kay (Ken) Parrot (born in 1910).
Following the end of her marriage to Parrot, Mary O'Hara worked as a Hollywood screenwriter during the silent film era. Her screenwriting credits included the movies The Last Card (1921), The Prisoner of Zenda (1922), Braveheart (1925), and Framed (1927).
O'Hara is an Anglicized form of the Irish name Ó hEaghra. The death of the eponyum is mentioned in the Annals of the Four Masters - 926. Eaghra Poprigh mac Saorghus, lord of Luighne, in Connaught ... died.

Uh, With everything happening today You don't know whether you're coming or going But you think that you're on your way Life lined up on the mirror, don't blow it (Whoo!) Look at me when I'm talking to you You lookin' at me, but I'm lookin' through you I see the blood in your eyes I see the love in disguise I see the pain hidden in your pride I see you're not satisfied And I don't see nobody else I see myself I'm lookin' at the Chorus - Bruno Mars: Mirror on the wall Here we are again (yeah) Through my rise and fall (uh) You've been my only friend (yeah) You told me that they can understand the man I am So why are we here Talking to each other again? I see the truth in your lies I see nobody by your side But I'm with you when you're all alone And you correct me when I'm lookin' wrong I see the guilt beneath the shame I see your soul through your windowpane I see the scars that remain I see Wayne I'm looking at the Chorus - Bruno Mars: Mirror on the wall Here we are again (yeah) Through my rise and fall (uh-huh) You've been my only friend (my only friend) You told me that they can Understand the man I am (they can understand) So why are we here (misunderstood) Talking to each other again? Looking at me now, I can see my past Damn, I look just like my f***in' Dad Light it up, that's smoke in mirrors I even look good in a broken mirror I see my Mama's smile, that's a blessing I see the change; I see the message And no message coulda been any clearer So I'm starting with the man in the Chorus - Bruno Mars: Mirror on the wall (MJ taught me that) Here we are again Through my rise and fall (uh) You've been my only friend (take 'em to Mars, man) You told me that they can understand the man I am So why are we Talking to each other again? Mirror on the wall Here we are again (yeah) Through my rise and fall You've been my only friend (any questions) You told me that they can (I come to you) Understand the man I am (you always have the answer) So why are we here Talking to each other again? Mirror on the wall (Hey BP, looks like I did take 'em to Mars this time)
