David Dunseith
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Dunseith (born 1933) is a veteran journalist and broadcaster with BBC Northern Ireland. His career has spanned the troubles covering the turbulent and tragic events of recent years from the Falls Curfew in 1970 to the Omagh atrocity in 1998. And he's reported on all the political initiatives from Sunningdale to the Good Friday Agreement.
He has been presenting BBC Radio Ulster's Talk Back since 1989 - he followed the late Barry Cowan as presenter - but his association with the programme goes back even further than that. When it first went on the air in 1986, he was a weekly contributor with a unique ability to read from a script written on various pieces of scrap paper - a talent he has little opportunity to demonstrate in this computer age. On Friday 7 September 2006, David Dunseith presented the 20th anniversary edition of Talk Back.
