A former poetry editor of The Irish Times, Hartnett was a member of Aosdána, the Affiliation of Creative Artists in Ireland, and a recipient of numerous literary and poetry awards during his lifetime, including the Irish Poetry Prize (1980), a Poetry Ireland Choice (1987), and awards from the Irish American Cultural Institute (1986, 1988) and the American Ireland Literary Fund Award (1975, 1980, and 1990). Michael Hartnett sadly passed away on 13th October 1999, at the age of 58.
