THE PAUL LESLIE HOUR INTERVIEWS Episode #243 – Carol Shaughnessy

Episode #243 – Carol Shaughnessy

This is an interview recorded in 2008 with writer and publicistĀ Carol Shaughnessy, whose work has covered many facets of the tourism and entertainment world. Carol Shaughnessy has spent almost her entire life in Key West, Florida; a place she speaks of with warm reverence. Her life in the Keys has allowed her to meet many fascinating people, including the legendary Phil Clark, a man she loved and in his later years was engaged to. Phil Clark was the subject of what is perhaps one of Jimmy Buffett’s most loved classic songs, “A Pirate Looks at Forty.” Shaughnessy went on to work for Jimmy Buffett as the head of his mail-order business and fan-relations person, answering all correspondence from fans, and, for the first three years of its existence, was the first editor of Jimmy Buffett’s successful Coconut Telegraph publication. Carol Shaughnessy has chosen the adventurous route in life, whether serving as a former director of Key West’s Hemingway Days festivals, writing and recording the stories of so many fascinating residents of the Conch Republic or her current role as a publicist.

In this interview you will hear the story of Carol Shaughnessy, a woman with a Key West heart. She explains what she calls “the Margaritaville Mystique” as well as the Magic of Key West in what we feel is a truly beautiful story of someone who can truly say “I Have Found Me a Home.” This unearthed gem is only here onĀ The Paul Leslie Hour.
