Two weeks after announcing she will retire after 38 years in office, Assemblywoman Cathy Nolan has endorsed attorney Johanna Carmona to succeed her in the race to represent District 37 in Albany.
The 32-year-old lawyer is a lifelong resident of Sunnyside having grown up across from Noonan Playground and now lives on 41st Street in the same neighborhood.
Carmona worked in the Kings County district attorney’s office dealing with special victims, including children before she went to work for law firms that have helped 9/11 first responders, workers and survivors. She also further pursued litigation against sexual predators.
