Dan was born in Morristown, New Jersey and moved to Pennsylvania when he was 4 years old. His father, Vincent (Mac) McCarthy, worked for Bell Laboratories and Western Electric at the Allentown Works. His mother, Nonie, worked at the former Sarco Manufacturing Company in Allentown. Dan was the oldest of 7 children and grew up in the Hamilton Park section of Allentown. He was educated at St. Catherine's Elementary School and the Allentown School District system. He graduated from William Allen High School in 1966.
Dan went on to college and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science at the University of Texas at El Paso and a law degree at the University of Houston. Coming from a large family, money was something to be earned, rather than to be given. Dan worked at many jobs to pay for his education. Jobs such as steel worker, cab driver, security guard, municipal worker, title searcher and finally a position with the United States Department of Justice.
Returning to Lehigh County after his education was completed, Dan was the first full time assistant city solicitor for the City of Allentown and after five years went into private practice at the law firm of Efron, Black, Epstein, Prokup & McCarthy. One of its members, Alan Black, became a Lehigh County judge in 1997. Since 1979, Dan has been engaged in the private practice of law, representing individuals, families, and small businesses with his office at 13th & Hamilton Streets.
Other than to attend college and law school, Dan has been a resident of the City of Allentown and Lehigh County since 1958. Dan is married to Christine Dalton McCarthy, who owns the Dalton Insurance Agency in Bethlehem. He is the proud father of Heather Henry and son-in-law, Leif Henry, who is an Allentown Police officer assigned to the canine division.
