A 3-part career path led him from Olympic heights in sports to a medical career as a physician, and only later in life (after realizing his gift for singing) to an international career with the Three Irish Tenors.

  Hear a live performance from Dublin and 30-minute interview. DVD
• Ronan Tynan: Doctor Courageous (5206)
  The inspiring story of a courageous individual, whose indomitable spirit led him to become a sports hero, successful physician, and internationally acclaimed singer with the 3 Irish Tenors.
