==Biography==
Born in the Greenville section of Jersey City on March 20, 1950, he served as mayor from 1981 to 1985 and again from 1989 to 1992. In 1992, "He was indicted for mail fraud, bank fraud, tax evasion, making false statements to the IRS, and failure to file his taxes." 〔Helene Stapinski, ''Five-Finger Discount: A Crooked Family History'', New York: Random House, 2001. p. 203.〕 The prosecutor was then–United States Attorney Michael Chertoff. McCann said of the lead prosecutor, "It will become obvious that they were insane to bring this case in the first place. And we are going to send Mr. Chertoff back to preparing wills. Maybe I can find him a job driving a sanitation truck in Jersey City." 〔 McCann was convicted on 15 of 16 counts.〔Helene Stapinski, ''Five-Finger Discount: A Crooked Family History'', New York: Random House, 2001. pp. 204-205.〕 He spent two years in federal prison.
As a convicted felon, McCann was barred from running for political office again.〔Kaulessar, Ricardo.("McCann - no holds barred" ), ''Jersey City Reporter'', January 21, 2005. Accessed October 27, 2007. "In the years since prison, McCann has tried running for various offices in Jersey City, even though as a convicted felon, he is prohibited from doing so. Courts have barred his candidacy when he tried to run."〕
In February, 2010, McCann was hired as an inspector for the city's incinerator authority.〔
