About Senator Musto

icon  Download full bio (MS Word doc)

First elected in 2008, Senator Anthony Musto is currently serving his second term in the state Senate representing Bridgeport, Trumbull and Monroe. He currently serves as chair of the legislature’s Human Services Committee.

As Senate chair of the General Assembly’s Select Committee on Children for two years, Anthony developed a reputation as a skilled legislator with the ability to compromise. During the 2010 legislative session, he shepherded several pieces of important legislation—including bills to aide homeless youth in Connecticut and to safeguard exploited children—with bipartisan, unanimous support.

Also in 2010, Anthony played a key role in the passage of the first comprehensive bill in the country in response to the recession’s impact on children. The Connecticut Early Childhood Alliance recognized Anthony as a 2010 Child Champion for his advocacy.

Anthony is a graduate of Fairfield College Preparatory School, class of 1987. He received a bachelor’s degree in accounting from American University in Washington, D.C. and a law degree from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. After law school, Anthony worked for the Georgia attorney general, litigating tax and other financial cases for several years before working with Arthur Anderson as a tax attorney. He established his own law office in Trumbull in 2002 and currently practices law in Fairfield.

No stranger to public service, Anthony became involved in Trumbull town government in 2002, eventually serving on the Town Council, Land Acquisition Committee, Treasurer, Pension Board and Capital Improvements Committee. He represents the Trumbull Housing Authority as an attorney, and has volunteered his time organizing and assisting Trumbull High School’s ACE Foundation. His wife, Katherine, served on the Trumbull Arts Commission and volunteers as a member of the State Advisory Council on Special Education.

Anthony has also served as a youth counselor at his church, a volunteer tax preparer for low-income individuals, a board member and volunteer for a charity building low-cost housing and a member of the Jane Ryan Father’s Club.

Anthony lives in the Long Hill section of Trumbull with his family. His children attend Trumbull schools, and his wife works as a speech therapist in Trumbull’s elementary schools.
