Page 6 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 19, 2025 ~ Malden Musings ~ Steve Winslow: This Is Your Life By Peter Levine S teve Winslow ain’t just another handsome face in the Malden crowd! He’s your incumbent Ward 6 Councillor, back on the ballot, whom you must vote for, because to be frank… in Ward 6, the alternative ain’t so pretty (insert smiley face). He may be the “new(ish)” kid on the block in Ward 6, but Steve’s no stranger to Malden politics. You might remember him as Councillor-at-Large before his convincing victory last time around. These days, folks just call him “Ward 6 Councillor” … or, depending on whom you ask, “Mr. Bicycle Man.” Hey Maldonia, how can you not root for a guy who grew up idolizing legends like Willie Mays and Rick Barry? That’s heart, hustle and history all rolled into one. He’s Steve Winslow, and you’re not! Steve, this is your life… Question: Full name and short family history? Answer: Stephen Patrick Winslow, a story in itself. The Winslow family helped establish Plymouth Plantation and in 2020 represented the 400th anniversary of my family’s arrival in America on the land of the Wampanoags. My middle name honors my great-grandmother Nora who immigrated as a teen from County Cork Ireland to Boston to work as a maid. She met my great-grandfather in Boston who served as teamster for horse drawn trolleys that ran in the late 1890’s. Q: What one thing would people be surprised to learn about you? A: My first love was basketball. My buddies called me “Bird” for my flying slam dunks a few years before Larry Bird was a household name. (My note – not sure if Steve kids us here but he IS tall! Insert smiley face!) Q: Favorite adult beverage? A: My go to is Guinness on tap while a stout from Idle Hands or Night Shift will do also. To hydrate after a long bike ride, I mix Fanta Orange and orange juice.

I pick up the Advocate at Sunnyhurst in Maplewood Square every week (My Ward 6 Councillor Steve Winslow in Maplewood Square — Fortune Corner in the background. note: right on, Steve!). Q: Last concert attended? A: The Neighborhood with time? A: “American Girl” by Tom Petty Calvin the Entertainer. My cousin’s wife actually works for the show, and my grandkids and I received passes to visit the set during taping. Q: G.O.A.T.: Brady, Russell, Orr, Williams or Bird? A: That’s a tough one. I would go with Russell both for his tenacious team play that led to all those championships and for his strong stands for civil rights off the court. Brady is right up there. Never been a better pure hitter than Ted Williams. Certainly, appreciated Larry Bird backed up his talk with great play. Hockey is just out of my wheelhouse. (My note: spoken like a true lifetime Bostonian! LOL). Q: Go-to restaurant in Malden: Be prepared before the next power outage. Lawrence A.
