Michael J. Sheehan: Michael Sheehan retired in 1994 after teaching English for 26 years in the City Colleges of Chicago. He lives in Leelanau County, Michigan. In his spare time he is a writer, and he does a weekly program on Tuesday mornings from 9:00-10:00 on AM 580, WTCM, located in Traverse City, Michigan. The show is called Words to the Wise, and it covers the joys and vicissitudes of the English language. [wtcmradio.com] Michigan's Governor Granholm appointed him to the Commission on Services to the Aging; he was reappointed to another six years by Governor Snyder, thus serving a total of nine years. He was Chairman of the forty-member State Advisory Council on Aging for five years. He was formerly on the Board of Advisors of the Area Agency on Aging of Northwest Michigan, and was a member of the Bay Area Senior Advocates. Professor Sheehan is a member of the Society of Midland Authors, the Dictionary Society of North America, the American Dialect Society, and Michigan Writers.
