Hughie O'Donoghue (born 1953) is a British painter born in Manchester. ==Biography== Hughie O'Donoghue was born in 1953 in the city of Manchester in northern England. His father, Daniel O'Donoghue, was also born in Manchester, to Irish parents, and was a railway company clerk in the city. Daniel O'Donoghue encouraged his son to study history and literature and spend time in Manchester City Art Gallery. This was to prove a key element in the formation of O'Donoghue's desire to make art.〔James Hamilton, 'The Work of Hughie O'Donoghue', in ''The Irish Arts Review Yearbook,'' 1990-1991, p.144〕 Equally significant was O'Donoghue mother, who had been born in Ireland, in the Gaeltacht of County Mayo.〔Nigel Billen, 'The History Man', in ''RA Magazine,'' Autumn 2009, issue 104〕 O'Donoghue spent much of his childhood here, learning traditional stories and experiencing the landscape around his mother's family home.〔James Hamilton, 'The Work of Hughie O'Donoghue', in ''The Irish Arts Review Yearbook,'' 1990-1991, p.144〕 O'Donoghue gained an MA in Fine Art from Goldsmiths College, University of London in 1982 and was appointed to be artist-in-residence at the Drax power station near Selby in Yorkshire in 1983.〔James Hamilton, 'The Work of Hughie O'Donoghue', in ''The Irish Arts Review Yearbook,'' 1990-1991, p.152, n.9〕 This was followed in 1984 by a two-year residency at the National Gallery in London, and by another art residency in 2000 at St John's College, Oxford.
