Welcome

My name is John Patrick Callahan, Jr., but many people know me as Jack. I was born and raised on the southwest side of Chicago and currently live in the western suburbs. I am a graduate of Marist High School ('81), Marquette University ('85), and Chicago-Kent College of Law ('88).

I am married to Joanne (nee McNamara), an occupational therapist at LaGrange Hospital. We have a son, Kevin, who is a junior at Marist High School and a daughter, Mary Kate, who is a freshman at Fenwick High School.

On September 8, 2009, I was honored to be appointed by the Illinois Supreme Court to serve as a Judge of the Circuit Court of Cook County. I was appointed to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of the Honorable Daniel J. Kelley.

I am now seeking your support in the upcoming Democratic primary for Judge of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois.

Thank you,
Judge John Patrick “Jack” Callahan, Jr.



Jack Callahan Jr. is slated and endorsed by the Cook County Democratic Party
