Even in her personal life, Susan proved a trailblazer. In April 1947 Susan married Chief Petty Officer Francis X. Cuddy an American Irishman (deceased in 1994) and defied anti-miscegenation laws in place in 1947 and wed at the only place that would marry them: a Navy chapel in Washington, D.C. Francis also worked for Navy Intelligence and NSA. He was a code-breaker and helped the United States free Korea through his specialty, work since he spoke Japanese fluently. After his Navy career he worked for Kodak and GAF in film processing sales. He helped finance the Ahn familyâ?²s Moongate restaurant business. In 1959 Susan Ahn Cuddy came home to Los Angeles and joined the Ahn family.
