I'll give this one a shot:
1. I was born near Dublin, Ireland. 2. While my given name is Biblical, I'm better known by a nickname. 3. I was bedridden with an unknown illness, so I didn't start school until I was 7 years old. |

I'm a theater history guy, so the Lyceum clue led me to thinking about Stoker who was basically a pr guy for 19th century actors. The Biblical name clue sealed it for me.
1. I founded a weekly newspaper--though that wasn't my major claim to fame. 2. I was on the Board of Trustees of a major university--though that wasn't my major claim to fame. 3. I co-founded a transportation company--though that wasn't my major claim to fame.
