Iriseoir, léiritheoir teilifíse, léirmheastóir leabhar, múinteoir agus údar Éireannach as Baile Átha Cliath ba ea Nuala O'Faolain nó Nuala Ó Faoláin[1] (1 Márta 1940 – 9 Bealtaine 2008[2]). Bhain sí clú idirnáisiúnta amach le leabhar cuimhní cinn (Are You Somebody?), lena húrscéal (My Dream of You) agus le leabhar beathaisnéise (The Story of Chicago May).[3] Bailíodh iad go léir ar liosta leabhar sárdhíola an nuachtáin The New York Times.
Lán d'aer an tsaoil, d'úsáid sí caint a bhainfeadh siar as a lán.[4] Bhí deis a labhartha aici agus ealaíonta le focail. Is iomaí caint a tharraing a shaol príobháideach, agus scannail ag baint léi,[1][5]
Tháinig ailse uirthi. Rinne sí agallaimh cháiliúil ar 12 Aibreán 2008 ar an Marian Finucane Show agus í i ngar don bhás ("I don't want more time. As soon as I heard I was going to die, the goodness went from life").[4]
