The identity of the victim in the Times Square incident has been revealed

The tragic Ivy League banker fatally stabbed by a maniac in Times Square was a new mom who had just joyously celebrated her baby’s baptism and returned to work after maternity leave, online posts show.

University of Pennsylvania grad Erin Piacenti, 32, of Chester, NJ, posted a touching photo only four days before her murder of herself smiling broadly while holding her infant and standing with her husband — and wrote how happy she was, the New York Times reported.

Piacenti, also a Fordham Law School graduate who ended up working for Bank of America, said in the post that she was grateful for getting five months off to care for her new daughter, according to the outlet.

Piacenti was just a “beautiful, beautiful girl,’’ her grandmother told the Times.

The banking exec was knifed to death by mentally disturbed mom of three Pamela Cisneros, 49, during a random attack Monday afternoon in the heart of Manhattan’s theater district. Cisneros also stabbed and wounded another passerby before cops shot her dead.

“We are shocked and deeply saddened by the tragic loss of our colleague,’’ Bank of America said in a statement of Piacenti — who attended Villa Walsh Academy, a private girls’ Catholic school, in Morristown, NJ, before going on to a prestigious college and post-grad career.
