Biography
Talarico earned his undergraduate degree from Lehigh University with a major in Chemical Engineering, was awarded a Master of Business Administration degree from Fairleigh Dickinson University with a major in Management[2] and received a J.D. from New York Law School in June 1986.[1] He worked as a Vice President / Sales Executive at Chase Manhattan Corporation. He served as a member of the borough council in Oradell, New Jersey.[2]
Talarico was chosen by Republican county committee members in February 1997 to fill the vacancy created when Patrick J. Roma stepped down from office to take a seat as a judge on the New Jersey Superior Court.[3][4] He was elected to a full term in the Assembly in 1997 together with Rose Marie Heck of Hasbrouck Heights, and the two were re-elected in 1999.[5] In redistricting following the 2000 census, Talarico was relocated to the 39th Legislative District and came in third in the 2001 Republican primary behind Charlotte Vandervalk and John E. Rooney.[6] In the Assembly, Talarico served as Vice Chair of the Senior Issues and Community Services Committee and as a member of the Law and Public Safety Committee.[2]
In August 1998, Talarico sponsored a bill that would require commitment for those with mental health issues if it is determined that it is likely that they will commit future crimes.[7]
Talarico resigned as chairman of the Bergen County Republican Organization following the loss of Todd Caliguire in the Republican primary to Kevin J. O'Toole.[8]
In January 2023, Talarico announced he was considering a state senate bid in the 38th Legislative District to challenge for seat held by Democratic incumbent Joseph Lagana.[9]
