Today, though he lives and works in New York City, Malone’s head and heart are still in Aruba. And, since tourism has grown to dominate the Aruba economy, Malone is responsible for a significant part of the nation’s gross domestic product. He grew up on Glenridge Way and attended elementary school in Gilford, then, because Gilford Middle and High School hadn’t yet been built, went to high school in Laconia. After the Americana, Malone worked for several other hotels in Aruba, while also consulting with business associations. Malone lives and works in the city, though he continues to own a home in Aruba, which he visits whenever he can.
