Mary Connors

My name is Mary Connors. I’m an Assistant Public Defender for Dauphin County. I graduated from DeSales University with a B.A. in Law and Society and attended law school at Villanova University. I’ve been working in Dauphin County for a little over a year. I previously worked as a Public Defender in both Carbon County and Allegheny County. I currently work in the adult criminal trial division, but I never complain about being assigned the occasional juvenile case. I love my job, and I hope to be doing this work for the rest of my career.

In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym, participating in recreational sports leagues, exploring new places, and watching movies. I always enjoy meeting other people who do Public Defender work and look forward to getting to know everyone through the Emerging Leader Academy program.
