Joseph "Joe" Daly (1 August 1910 — 15 December 1992), also known as Seosamh Ó Dálaigh (Irish pronunciation: [ʃoːsˠəw oː d̪ˠaːl̪ˠə]),[1] was a folklorist for the Irish Folklore Commission and one of the first full-time collectors for the Irish Folklore Commission. He is credited with preserving approximately 60,000 handwritten pages of Irish oral traditions, including significant material from renowned storyteller Peig Sayers. His work is regarded as a critical contribution to the preservation of Irish folklore and language.[2][3][4][5][6]
Born in Vickarstown, Dunquin, County Kerry, Ireland on 1 August 1910[7][8], he was a son of educator and Irish language author Seán Ó Dálaigh.[9] His career as a folklorist began in 1936 when, after several years of being unable to find work as a school teacher, he began transcribing Ediphone recordings of Irish storytellers made by Séamus Ó Duilearga.[10]
After retiring from folklore collection, Ó Dálaigh returned to teaching, first in Lisberran, County Tipperary (1951–1952), and later in Churchtown, County Kerry (1952–1963, 1964–1975). He also contributed to the English-Irish Dictionary (1959) and served as an assistant editor for Foclóir Gaeilge-Béarla (1977).[9]
In addition to his work as a folklorist and school teacher he was radio presenter with his own program on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta "Cúinne Joe."[2][11]
