Eric Dinowitz sworn-in at
Lehman College ceremony
City Councilman Eric Dinowitz
held his offi cial swearingin
ceremony at the Lovinger
Theatre in Lehman College on
Dec. 5, in front of a crowd of more
than 300 attendees. Dinowitz, who
won in a special election in March,
went on to win the primary in
June, and the November general
election.
Dinowitz, 35, has been serving
on the New York City Council
since April.
The Ceremonial Oath of Offi ce
was administered by State Supreme
Court Justice Andrew Cohen.
The ceremony included a performance
by the Celia Cruz School
of Music, led by conductor David
West. Celia Cruz is a local school
that Dinowitz previously taught
at during his 14 years as a public
school special education teacher.
After his swearing in, the ceremony
ended with Dinowitz’s inaugural
speech.
“As a candidate, I vowed to ensure
the Bronx is never left behind,”
said Dinowitz, a Riverdale
resident. “And, in the brief time I
have served as your Council Member,
I’ve kept that vow. Since taking
offi ce in April of this year, I
have delivered for District 11. I
have sponsored 48 pieces of legislation
benefi cial to the people of
our city and the Bronx, 23 of which
have already been signed into law.
“For me, it all started in a classroom,
and now I proudly bring
those lessons learned to City Hall.
And the lessons I have learned at
City Hall so far, I proudly take
into my upcoming full term at the
Council. The future is bright here
in the Bronx.”
