Born in Newbawn, County Wexford, Donovan first excelled at hurling during his schooling at St. Peter's College. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-three when he first linked up with the Wexford senior team, making his debut in the 1950 championship. Donovan later played with the Wexford junior hurling and football teams before returning to the senior ranks. During his career he won two Leinster medals.
