City Hall, New York City

Captain Angelo J. Maroulis, Commanding Officer of the Auxiliary Police Section, New York City Police Department, was presented with an award in celebration of Greek Heritage. Captain Maroulis was one of five honorees who were presented with awards by the Comptroller of the City of New York, the Honorable Alan G. Hevesi. The ceremony was held in the Public Hearing Room in City Hall on March 29, 2000. The honorees were all outstanding examples of citizens of Greek heritage who were feted by Mr. Hevesi at City Hall. The keynote address was given by the New York Emmy Award-winning Television News Anchor Ernie Anastos. Mr. Anastos currently hosts the 10 PM news on WWOR-TV.
