PATRICK DEIGO HANRAHAN, JR.

NAME: Patrick Diego Hanrahan Jr.
NICKNAME: Rick, Pat, Junior, Di
AGE: 24
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Harlem, New York, USA

PERSONALITY

Much like his younger sister Shiloh, Patrick is proud of his Spanish and Irish heritage. He shares several of the same qualities as his younger sibling—he’s opinionated, stubborn, and arrogant—but unlike her, he holds a hidden resentment towards his father, who he believes made him grow up faster than he should have and who seemed to always be disappointed in the choices he made.

He is very protective of his two younger sisters—even when they don’t want him to be—and they are the only people he tends to be affectionate with, besides his mother. To those who don’t know him, he appears to be standoffish and shy but he’s really gregarious. He’s quite intelligent for a man so young and a quick thinker, which has helped him become quite successful in his job.

HISTORY

Patrick was raised in Spanish Harlem by a father who came from Ireland and a mother who came from Spain. Wanting their children to know where they came from, his parents taught him to speak both Gaelic and Spanish. He grew up as the oldest and only son of three kids, himself and two younger sisters, Shiloh and Camilla.

His mother worked as a laundress and his father worked at the docks—though he tried to make a living playing music. When his father became ill and could no longer work, Patrick had to leave his family to find a job to help support his struggling family until his father was back on his feet. This left him with a hidden resentment towards his father for interrupting his easy, care-free life and making him have to grow up.

A few weeks after his nineteenth birthday, he found a job working as a printer at the WORLD and he began earning money to help his family. He had been working for a couple months when one of the head journalists of the paper came across an article Patrick had written for fun and realized the kid had potential. So, he was promoted to Journalist--making him one of the youngest ever--and he quickly became well respected and good competition for everyone who worked with him. To this day, he still works as a journalist for The WORLD proud of his great success.
