Watch Mountain Brook Fire Marshal David Cohen talk career, retirement

Mountain Brook Fire Marshal David Cohen’s decade-long career will end Dec. 31. Cohen, who began his 30-year firefighter career in Center Point, is retiring.

 “I really love the job. It gives me the opportunity to work with a lot of interesting people,” Cohen said in a previous interview with Village Living.

Following his years in Center Point, Cohen came to the Mountain Brook Fire Department’s Old Leeds Road station and worked up the ranks for about 10 years to become a captain, then the marshal.

Cohen is training fellow firefighter Lee Rhudy to take his place as fire marshal on Jan. 1, 2016.
