Fiona Kennedy has always been her own woman. Like when she played Patricia the Stripper in the halla of her convent secondary school, back when she was a teen growing up in Bishopstown.
And the night in the 1980s when she took on a rural bar-owner who was refusing to pay her, even though her gig had brought the house down.
