It seems to me[edit]

that a sentence such as this:

It is also reported that for a time he earned money as a prize-fighter.

really needs to be sourced. It says "reported" but as a reader I am inclined to ask "Reported where?" However I am not a big fan of the Citation Needed tags, so rarely use them Carptrash (talk) 15:36, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am now starting to wonder[edit]

if Connor was an American at all. Studying and living in the US for 30 or 40 years do not (opinion) make one an American. The wikipedia article Nuns of the Battlefield, a work by him, refer to him as an "Irish sculptor." I find no article about him in either Falk, Peter Hastings, Who Was Who in American Art Sound View Press, Madison CT, 1985, or Opitz, Glenn B., Mantle Fielding's Dictionary of American Painters, Sculptors & Engravers, Apollo Books, Poughkeepsie, NY, 1988, the two standard works on American artists. Hill, Judith, ‘’Irish Public Sculpture’’, Four Courts Press, Dublin, Ireland, 1998, describes him in Ireland, late in his life, as, "an outsider who had trained and worked in America." It is sounding to me that he is just an Irish sculptor. Period. Carptrash (talk) 04:07, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
