Eddie Heron
James Edward ("Eddie") Heron (28November 191023April 1985) was an Irish high diving and springboard diving champion. He won the British Diving Championship in 1932 and represented Ireland at the 1948 Olympic Games. ==Early life== Eddie Heron was born in the north inner city of Dublin, Ireland. His father, Michael, worked as a butcher and was from Carlow. His mother, Mary Heron (née Kennedy) was from Dublin. Heron senior was an able gymnast and diver and introduced his son to both disciplines at an early age.〔Jim Shanahan, "Heron, James Edward ('Eddie')", ''Dictionary of Irish Biography'', (ed.) James McGuire, James Quinn. Cambridge, United Kingdom: Cambridge University Press, 2009.〕 Indeed young Heron learnt to dive before he could swim. At the age of eleven his father had to help him from the pool following a swallow dive which the boy performed at the Kingstown (now Dun Laoghaire) Regatta.〔''Sunday Independent'', 19 Dec. 1976〕
