Meet the Franklin County Recorder
Daniel J. O'Connor, Jr.
Daniel J. O'Connor, Jr. has the honor of serving as Franklin County's 30th Recorder.
As the son of an educator, the need to give back to the community is a belief that was instilled in Danny from a young age. It is this idea that led Danny to serve in the poorest neighborhoods of the United States, to become politically active in the Democratic Party, and now, to serve as Franklin County Recorder. Danny is committed to public service, justice for all, and good government, a commitment he emphasizes every single day as Franklin County Recorder.
Danny and his wife Spenser are the proud parents of Jacqueline and Danny III. They are assisted by their two bad dogs Mayo and Kilroy and reside in Grandview Heights.
