Michael (Ned) Kennedy is an actor, writer, musician and teacher who has spent countless hours “treading the boards” in various guises for numerous reasons.

Originally from the States, he grew up a young child in England, returned to the US for the rest of his educational years, and finally fled north to saner pastures over a decade ago. He has been proud to call himself a Canadian citizen for over three years now. Ned is currently working as an English teacher at Camber College and is a Cranberry resident.

After many years of attending live music events at Cranberry Hall and meeting previous and current board members I decided to step up and volunteer as a board member at large. I am retired and live close by the hall. Carpentry and building maintenance have been my mainstays of employment over the years and I am looking forward to meeting you at the hall.
