Early life


Delaney was born in the Dublin suburb of Drumcondra, one of the two children of Kathleen (née Loughrey) and Frank Delaney, a Guinness brewery worker.

After leaving school Delaney worked as a trainee fashion buyer, and attended the Brendan Smith Academy of Acting in Dublin. She began acting professionally with a touring production of Charley's Aunt and was an early member of the Dublin Globe Theatre company.
Between 1958 and 1995 she appeared in 13 feature films including The Quare Fellow (1962) and Young Cassidy (1965), and made over 70 TV appearances from 1962 to 2005 in plays and popular series including Z-Cars, Public Eye, The Bill, Rumpole of the Bailey and Casualty.
