Michael Quinn may refer to:
Michael Quinn (born in County Longford, Ireland) is a Gaelic footballer and former professional Australian rules footballer with Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Quinn is notable as holding the record for the quickest conversion of a former GAA player to play in the AFL, taking the record from Martin Clarke and having made his AFL debut just weeks after arriving in Australia.
Quinn grew up in Killoe, County Longford in Ireland. He played underage Gaelic football with the Killoe Young Emmets Gaa Club, and made his Club Senior Championship debut in 2008, where he helped his club reach the Longford Senior Championship semi final. In addition he also played for the Longford minor team in the Leinster Minor Championship in the same year, reaching the Leinster semi final.
In August 2008, Quinn arrived in Melbourne for a two-week trial with Essendon. After impressing talent scouts he returned to Ireland but was invited to return to Australia in November to be signed as an international rookie on 16 November.
Michael Quinn, MBE, is a chef and charity worker who was Head Chef at The Ritz; the first British person to hold that position. He became a homeless alcoholic, recovered, and founded an alcohol awareness charity.
Quinn began his career as apprentice in Leeds, and in 1966 was declared 'Top Apprentice Chef of Great Britain'. He subsequently worked at Claridge's, and earned a Michelin star as head chef of Gravetye Manor, and headhunted by The Ritz in 1980. His success there led to him being known as the "Mighty Quinn". He made television appearances, and was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE). He appeared as a "castaway" on the BBC Radio programme Desert Island Discs on 17 March 1984.
However, by 1990, he was unemployed and sleeping on the street or in Salvation Army hostels, due to his alcoholism.
In 2001, after a period of recovery, he established the charitable Ark Foundation, which raises awareness of alcohol and drug abuse in catering colleges in the United Kingdom.
Hello, give me missing-persons
They say what is it that you need
I said oh, I need her so
They said you've got to stop your pleading
'cause no matter what you do
Even pray to heaven above
All you ever get from her is
Long distance love
I read the paper and I 've got the blues
It's so sad to hear the news
Help wanted but not enough
They say these times are getting'rough
'cause no matter what I do
Even pray to heaven above
All I ever get from her is
Long distance love
You know her toes were so pretty
And her lies so sweet
I wonder does she know
Does she know she hurt me so
cause no matter what I do
Even pray to heaven above
All I seem to get from her is
Long distance love
Long distance love
