Michael Scott (architect)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michael Scott (June 24, 1905 – January 24, 1989) was an Irish architect whose buildings included the Busáras building in Dublin and the Abbey Theatre.
He was born in Drogheda in 1905. His family originated in County Kerry and he was educated at Belvedere College, Dublin.
There he first demonstrated his skills at painting and acting. Initially he wanted to pursue a career as a painter but his father pointed out that it might make more financial sense to become an architect.
