He served as a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Clare constituency from 1992 to 2011.[1][2] Early and personal lifeKilleen was born in Corofin, County Clare, and educated at St. Flannan's College in Ennis and Mary Immaculate College in Limerick. He worked as a national school teacher before entering into politics. He is married to Lily O'Keeffe; they have five sons and live in Kilnaboy, County Clare. Political careerKilleen first became involved in politics in 1985 when he was elected to Clare County Council and served on that body until 1997. He was chairman from 1989–1991. At the 1992 general election he was elected to Dáil Éireann for the Clare constituency for the first time and retained his seat at each subsequent election until his retirement in 2011.[3] Killeen has served on a number of committees, including the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Science, the Committee on Procedure and Privileges and the Committee on Members' Interests in Dáil Éireann. In 2004 he was appointed as Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment with special responsibility for Labour Affairs.
