Title-winner Katie proves a knock-out

The Wicklow gold medallist, who has been credited as one of the main driving forces behind the inclusion of women’s boxing in the Olympics, won her second high-profile title of the year at a glittering ceremony in Dublin’s Four Seasons Hotel.

She was one of a number of women honoured for their contribution to Irish society over the last 12 months. Other notable winners included former senator and Supreme Court Judge Catherine McGuinness, who won the magazine’s hall of fame award, and Love Hate star Ruth Bradley, who picked up the film and drama title.
