Biographic History Marion Jean Kennedy was born on November 27, 1934, the daughter of Marion Mitchell and Edward Kennedy. Growing up on the south side of Chicago, she attended Maria High School, but came to the north side of the city to attend and graduate from Mundelein College. She married Camillo Volini, and they raised their five children in the Lakewood-Balmoral neighborhood of Chicago. Until she entered politics, she was a teacher and speech therapist in the .

Marion Kennedy Volini was formally inducted into her office as Alderman of Chicago’s 48th Ward on July 7, 1978. That comparatively short ritual in the City Council chambers gave no indication of the years of groundwork, which singularly adapted her for political office. Ten years earlier she had collaborated in the formation of a neighborhood organization—the Lakewood Balmoral Residents Council—to upgrade what at that time was known as a deteriorated area, characterized by a transient population, many unskilled or unemployed, housing shortages, negligent property owners, and store closings. This area included Edgewater and Uptown, which had become a refuge for many unlicensed alcoholic treatment centers as well half-way houses for state-released mental patients.

Her first venture into city politics presented itself when 48th Ward Alderman Marilou Hedlund announced that she would not run for re-election. Marion Volini—the wife of lawyer Camillo, the mother of five—with no money, no experience, and no campaign organization—ran against Arnold Levy and Dennis Block—and lost. However she had won recognition as a community leader. She was asked to run for President of the Edgewater Community Council—which she won in an uncontested election.

Volini, pg. 1 Women and Leadership Archives Loyola University Chicago

When Alderman Dennis Block resigned after two years, a Special Election was announced with a primary and a run-off. Again Volini was on the ballot as an Independent who had the support of both the Democratic and Republican organizations. This campaign became a family affair—with Volini family members, large and small, participating in precinct work—making calls, stuffing envelopes. And when the votes were tallied on election night, Marion Volini was the new Alderman of the 48th Ward—to finish the unexpired term of the former Alderman.

The 48th Ward, with its 59 precincts, has a population of 60,000, and extends from Lake Michigan west to Clark St. and from 4700 North to 6200 North. Citing personal and informal demographics, Alderman Volini described the diversity of her area: “My community, on the very far north side lakefront, consists of the very rich and the very poor, the very old and the very young. We have families with children, and we have young couples and singles. The residents of my community are black, white, Hispanic, and Asian-American, and compose one of the few stable integrated communities in Chicago...The housing in the 48th ward includes high-rise condominiums, elegant Victorian homes, and beautiful re-habbed walk-up apartments. But we also have large common- corridor buildings, subsidized high-rise structures, and a number of deteriorated vacant buildings.”

Her appreciation of the 48th Ward’s ethnic cultural mix she described from another perspective: “a real richness of our community is the many-ness of our people. Six p.m. mixes the combined cooking aromas of the Far East - of Bangkok - and the haciendas of Mexico. Dining out here includes a choice of restaurants offering home-made specialties like shrimp tempura, Swedish meatballs, Mexican enchiladas, Peruvian pastry, gyros on pita bread, and some of the best deep-dish pizza anywhere.”

Immediate problems confronted Volini. The 48th Ward included the Uptown and Edgewater areas - scenes of many unsafe abandoned buildings, dirty streets, and high crime rates including arson, muggings, drugs, and rape. As Alderman, with her seat on the City Council, she was empowered to focus on improving neighborhood safety, housing rehabilitation, commercial revitalization, traffic congestion, as well as the prevention of lakefront erosion. She sponsored legislation concerning playground safety and prostitution. As Chairperson of the City Council’s Committee on Aging and Disabled, her efforts worked toward improving services and accessibility for senior citizens and the physically handicapped.

During her three terms as Alderman (1978-1987), Volini served under two first’s for Chicago mayors - , the first woman mayor, and , the first African American mayor. In a confrontation during an April City Council meeting, Mayor Washington adjourned the session, but his opponent Alderman continued the meeting after Washington and his supporters left the chambers. Volini was the only one of Washington’s supporters to remain.

The next day Volini presented a compromise proposal for City Council Committee chairmanships to the Mayor - and later faced down the Vrdolyak 29 - authorizing herself a negotiator. Later the Mayor appointed Volini as the only woman on the Washington six-member negotiating team. Her warning to the City Council was quoted in Time Magazine (May 23): “This is chaos. The sooner we get it under control, the better.” For more than four weeks city government was in a stalemate. Only after four meetings did both sides of the negotiating team reach consensus. It was from this chaos that Volini emerged in a position of Council leadership. Later she said that her motivation in

Volini, pg. 2 Women and Leadership Archives Loyola University Chicago assuming a leading role in this City Council dispute was her belief that power should be distributed equally - that no one should be excluded from the governmental process because of race or political ideology.

At the conclusion of her third term as Alderman, Volini opened her own real estate company, Lakefront Group. She continued to serve the City as a mayoral appointee to the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, which has under its jurisdiction Navy Pier and McCormick Place. In her later years, she continued to live in the Lakewood-Balmoral neighborhood.

Marion Kennedy Volini passed away May 21, 2018 at the age of 83.
