...ranging from transistor radios to giant shipyard cranes have been built for foreign firms in Ireland. For their share, foreign firms have invested about $84 million in plants and machinery.

"Do you realize what this means?" one of her early painting teachers asked her mother when he realized how big a talent Berthe had.
