Carol Cusack – Hoboken Talks S2E11

Dia dhaoibh a chairde. Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh! = Hello Friends. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Like many Irish immigrants, Carol arrived in the US in the early 1980s. Originally, she intended to visit for a few months and return to Ireland. As fate would have it, she never left. She found her way to Hoboken and has lived here ever since. Carol worked in Hoboken in the ’80s-’90s at Maxwell’s during the influential early years of the Hoboken music scene. She met her husband Mark there and they got married in Hoboken in the late 1990s. Carol and Mark raised their children Aaron and Emma here.

Carol currently lives uptown in Hoboken and works in NYC. She enjoys walks along Hoboken’s beautiful waterfront, visiting her old neighborhoods on Jefferson Street, shopping in the local stores, eating in local restaurants, attending the Arts and Music Festivals, craft fairs and the Hoboken Arts Walk. Carol is currently the volunteer treasurer at St Matthew Trinity Lutheran Church.
