The October / November 2000 issue of Irish America celebrates both the magazine's 15th anniversary and important icons and moments of Irish-American culture and history we've documented thus far as we approach the new millennium. Our cover story is Tom Dunphy's interview with Martin Sheen, where they delve into the actor and activist's Irish heritage, faith, and politics. Highlights include multiple contributions by Frank McCourt; Cormac McConnell on what it means to be Irish; Mary Higgins Clark on her wild Irish mother; and Fr. Andrew Greeley on the spirited nature of the Irish.
