Biographies

KEANE, RICHARD VALENTINE (1881-1946), politician and trade union official, was born on 14 February 1881 at Beechworth, Victoria, fourth child of Irish-born parents Timothy Keane, police constable, and his wife Hanorah, née O'Sullivan. After his father was transferred to Melbourne, Dick was educated at Christian Brothers' College, St Kilda. In November 1897 he was employed as a clerk in the accountant's branch of the Victorian Railways. At St James's Catholic Church, Elsternwick, on 9 June 1909 he married Ruby Thorne (d.1923), a milliner; they were to have a son and two daughters. From 1918 Keane held office in the Victorian Railways Union which federated with similar bodies in other States to form (1920) the Australian Railways Union. He was its general (national) secretary in 1925-29.
