He became a naturalized US citizen in 1914. He received pre-medical training in Chicago, with songwriting as chief avocation. He started writing music with Alma Sanders, whom he met at Jerome H. Remick's music publishing firm.[1] She eventually became his wife.[3] They collaborated on a number of shows and a large number of songs.[2] He joined the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers in 1923.[4] In 1930, he was living with his wife at 10 Williams Avenue in Mount Vernon, New York.[5] In 1942, he was living at 145 West 55th Street, New York.[6] After the death of his wife in 1956, he moved to Houston, Texas.[7] There he became vice-president of Carsen Music Publishing, founded by his step-son, Edward C. Benjamin Sr.[4] He died in Houston on June 9, 1967.[4][8] Songs with music or lyrics by Monte Carlo"Little Town in the old County Down" "Dinny Danny; The Irish Yacki Hula" "That Tumble-Down Shack in Athlone" "Every Tear Is a Smile in an Irishman's Heart" "By the waters of Killarney" "Just a bit of Irish lace" "Two Blue Eyes, One Little Green Isle" "My Home in the County Mayo" "The Hills of Connemara" "The Old Wooden Bridge in Athlone"[2][9] Several songs became very popular after being recorded by John McCormack in the early 1920s.
