Tom Greer was born in Anahilt, County Down, studied medicine at Queen's College, Belfast and had a medical practise in Cambridge. In 1892 he unsuccessfully contested, as a Liberal Home Ruler, the seat for North Derry. He published A Modern Daedalus, which is based on the old County Londonderry folk-tale of Hudy McGuiggen, a boy who had learnt how to fly by watching the sea-birds.
