Michael Viney (born 1933) is an artist, author, broadcaster, and journalist. He was born in Brighton. In the 1960s he wrote for ''The Irish Times'' about social issues such as the fate of people in institutional care.〔Brendan Kelly, ("Walking through the past in today’s Sligo" ), ''Irish Medical Times'', 13 October 2010〕 His articles were later incorporated into the Ryan Report on institutional abuse of children in Ireland.〔Rosita Boland, ("If I had stayed working in Dublin I'd probably be dead by now" ), ''The Irish Times'', July 10, 2010〕 In 1966, he won a Jacob's Award for his RTÉ Television documentary, ''Too Many Children''.〔''The Irish Times'', "Television awards presented", December 8, 1966〕 He has lived in rural County Mayo, near the coast south of Louisburg since the 1970s and his more recent work is about the natural world. His books include ''Ireland: A Smithsonian Natural History''〔Paul Clements,("Our precious stake in a fragile world" ), ''Fortnight magazine'', January 2004〕 and ''Ireland's Ocean'' (written with his wife Ethna Viney). He is perhaps best known for "Another Life", a column which has appeared weekly in ''The Irish Times'' since 1977.
