Having grown up in working-class Irish Brooklyn, with roots in beautiful Derry City on the Foyle, and serving as the three-time elected International President of the Transport Workers Union—the historic union founded and organized by Irishmen and women like Kerryman Mike Quill—being chosen as the Grand Marshal of the NYC St. Patrick’s Day Parade is an unbelievable dream come true for me. @TwuSamuelsen @StPatsParadeNYC
