Angelo Mancuso (American politician)

Angelo Mancuso is an American politician and dermatological surgeon.

Mancuso held the fourth district seat in the Alabama House of Representatives from 1999 to 2003 as a Democrat.[1] He contested the Democratic party primary for Alabama's 3rd Senate district in 2006.[2] In 2008, Mancuso switched parties, to run in the Republican primary for Alabama's 5th congressional district,[3] in which he finished third.[4] Mancuso considered running for the lieutenant governorship in 2013, after hearing that an International Paper mill in Courtland planned to close with inadequate responses by state politicians.[5][6] The next year, Mancuso contested the general election for Alabama's 4th Senate district as a Democrat, losing to Paul Bussman.[1][7]

Outside of politics, Mancuso is a dermatological surgeon.[8]
