His district includes parts of Lynbrook, Valley Stream, Rockville Centre, South Hempstead and portions of Baldwin, Oceanside, East Rockaway, Malverne and North Lynbrook.

Curran graduated from Our Lady of Peace Elementary School and graduated from St. Agnes High School in 1986. He received his undergraduate degree in 1990 from Wilkes University. In 1994 he earned his Juris Doctorate from CUNY Law School. Soon after graduation, he was admitted to the New York State and Connecticut Bars.

Upon graduating from law school, Curran was employed as legislative counsel to the New York State Assembly. He then joined the Nassau County County Attorney's Office as Deputy County Attorney in the Litigation Bureau and Municipal Contracts from 1996 to 2001, and later as Assistant Village Prosecutor of Lynbrook, where he served until 2007.

In 2001, he entered into private practice as an associate trial attorney with the forty-year-old law firm of Nicolini, Paradise, Ferretti and Sabella. In 2007, he was elected the 19th Mayor of the Village of Lynbrook, where he served until his election to the State Assembly.[4]
