Paul Mauricio Kelly (born 13 January 1955 in Adelaide, South Australia) is an Australian singer-songwriter and is recognized as an icon of Australian rock music as a member of the ARIA Hall of Fame. He is now based in Melbourne, Australia.
His output has ranged from bluegrass to studio-oriented dub reggae, but his core output comfortably straddles folk, rock, and even some country.
Paul Kelly (born 11 October 1947) is a New Zealand-born Australian political journalist, member of the Canberra Press Gallery and historian. He has worked in a variety of roles, and is currently "editor-at-large" for The Australian, an Australian national newspaper. He was previously described as the "Editor-in-chief" of that paper. He has also written several books on the political events of the 1970s and 1980s. His books about the Australian constitutional crisis of 1975 are regarded by many as the definitive accounts of the crisis.
He was Chief Political Correspondent with The Australian from 1974 to 1975, Chief Political Correspondent with The National Times from 1976 to 1978, Deputy Editor of The National Times from 1978 to 1979 and Chief Political Correspondent for The Sydney Morning Herald from 1981 to 1984. He was national affairs Editor of The Australian from 1985 to 1991, and Editor in Chief from 1991 to 1996.
He has a Bachelor of Arts and Diploma of Education from the University of Sydney, and worked for the Australian government before switching to journalism. He was formerly married to the Labor politician Ros Kelly. She retained her married surname Kelly even after divorcing Paul Kelly and marrying David Morgan.
Paul Kelly (born July 28 1969) is a champion Australian rules footballer (in the eyes of those from NSW), winning the Brownlow Medal and serving as captain of the Sydney Swans for ten seasons.
Born in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Kelly initially played rugby league for Wagga Brothers but turned to Australian rules football at age 15. Recruited to the AFL by the Swans, Kelly made his debut in 1990, was appointed captain in 1993, won the Brownlow Medal (the AFL's highest individual honour) in 1995, won club best and fairests in 1992, 1993, 1996 and 1997, All-Australian selection in 1995, 1996 and 1997 (the last two as captain), and the AFLPA's Robert Rose Award for Most Courageous Player in 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2000.
Kelly led the Swans to the AFL Grand Final in 1996—its first since 1945—and was considered one of the best players in the competition during the mid-1990s, but from 1998 onwards was severely hampered by injuries. Kelly retired after 234 AFL games and served as the Swans runner in 2003 before retiring to his farm near Wagga Wagga. His autobiography, Swan Song, was published in 2003 and covers the period up until his retirement from football. His No. 14 jumper has since been retired for 5 years, before it was brought out again, this time to be worn by Craig Bird.
In 2005, Kelly was on hand to present the premiership cup to Paul Roos and Barry Hall after the Swans' nailbiting 4-point Grand Final win.
In 2006, he presented the Brownlow Medal to former team mate, Adam Goodes.
He was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in July, 2007.
Paul Kelly (1876-1936) was a New York criminal who founded the Five Points Gang, one of the last dominant street gangs in New York history and recruited many of the most prominent criminals of the early 20th century, including Johnny Torrio, Al Capone, Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel and Frankie Yale. His year of birth is not reliably known. Some reports have him born in 1871 (as well his death in 1927), however his gravestone in Calvary Cemetery says he was born December 23, 1876 and died April 3, 1936. There are some doubts that the site is actually his grave.
Paul Michael Kelly (August 9, 1899 - November 6, 1956) was an American film actor.
Kelly was born in Brooklyn, New York. He was a child actor in silent films beginning at age 7 before growing up to become a Broadway and film actor. Kelly appeared in over one hundred movies, most of them as a supporting actor in the 30s, 40s and 50s.
The actor's career momentum was briefly halted with a two-year (1927-1929) forced hiatus when he spent 25 months in California's San Quentin prison for beating to death actor Ray Raymond in a fistfight. Raymond's widow, Dorothy MacKaye, later married Kelly. She was briefly imprisoned for being an accomplice in the murder.
Kelly alternated between stage and screen as an actor, finally making his talkie debut in 1932's Broadway Through A Keyhole.
Kelly died of a heart attack in 1956, aged 57.
