ANTHONY V.
CURTO, ESQ., FEATURED IN SIGNIFICANT REGIONAL ROLES
Prominent attorney Tony V. Curto is elected to Telecare’s
Board of Directors, serves on Council of Economic Advisors
for Nassau County Executive Thomas Suozzi, and is named
Huntington Arts Council honoree
Mineola, March 06, 2002 — Northport resident Anthony
V. Curto, a partner at the Mineola-based law firm Forchelli,
Curto, Schwartz, Mineo, Carlino & Cohn, LLP, finds 2002
a busy year so far. Curto has been selected to serve on
two important regional groups: he was appointed by Nassau
County Executive Thomas Suozzi to serve on the Nassau County
Council of Economic Advisors, and was recently elected to
the Board of Directors for Telecare, the non-profit television
and production facility of the Diocese of Rockville Centre.
As well, Curto’s community efforts are to be recognized
by the Huntington Arts Council with a dinner in his honor
on April 30, 2002.
Curto’s track record working on behalf of the Nassau
County community, as well as his business experience, distinguished
him as an ideal choice in Suozzi’s eyes, according
to a spokesperson for the county executive. The seventeen-member
Council will work with the Suozzi administration to expand
the county’s tax base by attracting high-skill, high-tech
businesses.
A 1998 Telecare honoree, Curto is a regular panelist on
“Father Tom and Friends” with host Monsignor
Tomas J. Hartman, President and CEO of Telecare. Curto’s
term on Telecare’s Board of Directors begins April
2002.
Curto has been associated with numerous high-profile business
matters and has represented such diverse clients as Aleksandr
I. Solzhenitsyn, Harry Chapin, Freeman McNeil and Liza Minnelli.
He currently represents guitarist Esteban – among
today’s top Billboard artists. He was the first attorney
to successfully argue a trademark from the NFL for a fan
– the Jets team superfan “Fireman Eddie.”
He represented financier
Bernard Baruch and was instrumental in the creation of the
Bernard M. Baruch Foundation, dedicated to environmental
research and teaching. Curto also has a notable record of
civic and educational service. He received a Congressional
Achievement Award in 1984 and a Martin Luther King “Living
the Dream” Service Award in 1987. He is a former Adjunct
Professor of Law and Business for Hofstra University, and
he speaks regularly at New York State and Suffolk County
Bar Association seminars.
A volunteer and advisor for community and not-for-profit
groups, Curto has worked with the Harry Chapin Foundation
and the Huntington Cinema Arts Centre, among others. On
April 30, 2002, Tony Curto is to be honored at the annual
Huntington Arts Council golf outing and dinner.
