On Nov. 2, newcomer James Nolan surprised the political world by beating incumbent Democrat Ruth Walter in the 15th District for the Westchester County Board of Legislators.

But while Nolan was new to politics, he wasn't unfamiliar to voters who came to know Nolan in the months and years after his brother, Michael, was shot to death outside a Yonkers Burger King.

He has since created the Michael Nolan foundation in honor of his brother. He also works for the Yonkers School District.
