About this person
Sam Millar is a crime writer and playwright from Belfast, Northern Ireland. A former volunteer in the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), he was imprisoned at HM Prison Maze during the late 1970s and 1980s, where he took part in the blanket protest. After his release, he emigrated to the United States, where in January 1993 he carried out an armed robbery at a Brink's security depot in Rochester, New York, stealing $7.4 million in what federal authorities described as one of the largest armoured car robberies in American history. He was convicted in 1994 of possessing proceeds of the robbery and served a prison sentence, part of which was completed in Northern Ireland under a prisoner transfer arrangement. He returned to Belfast following his release in 1997 and subsequently pursued a career as a writer, publishing a memoir of his experiences, On The Brinks, in 2003, as well as a series of crime novels.
