Pasquale (Pat) Carlucci was born in Jamaica, Queens, began his life in South Ozone Park, Queens, and was raised in north Yonkers, New York. Together with a small group of elementary school classmates he traveled to the south Bronx to attend Cardinal Hayes High School. Pat credits the education and discipline he received at Hayes with preparing him for whatever life and a career would bring.

Pat then graduated from Manhattan College (University) where he received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and received the Medal for Marketing awarded to the outstanding marketing graduate. It is here where he was recruited by the General Foods Corporation (Kraft Foods) which is where he began his business career.  Pat had a distinguished and successful twenty-year career in the company’s Maxwell House Division, holding a series of marketing, sales planning and sales management positions while residing in numerous locations across the country.

In fact, these numerous corporate relocations became the inspiration and roadmap for his first book, A Baseball Birthright: Chronicles and Connections which explores family and friendship through the eyes of a keen observer of the National Pastime, chronicling the connections made between family, friends, and a love of the game while he guides you along the pathways of his life story, current events, and vivid accounts of the games.

For over the past twenty years Pat has been an executive search consultant and has individually led or collaborated on over one hundred executive search assignments.

Pat now lives in Washington, D.C. and vacations annually on Anna Maria Island in Florida with his family and grandchildren. This location became the newest inspiration and roadmap for his second book, Baseball in Paradise: A Century of Spring Training in Bradenton, Florida.
