He was born in Ross Carbery, County Cork, Ireland, in 1858.[1] He came to New Zealand in 1878 to join his brother Richard, who had represented Okarito on the Westland County Council (1872–1873) and on the Westland Provincial Council (1874–1876).[1][2]

In the 1920 New Zealand Royal Visit Honours, O'Donovan was appointed a Member (fourth class) of the Royal Victorian Order,[3] and in the 1922 King's Birthday Honours, he was made a Companion of the Imperial Service Order.[4]
