Steve Bulpett

Born: 1957, Lynn, MA

Education: University of  Dayton, 1979, B.A.

Career: Beavercreek (Ohio) Daily News 1979-81; Burlington (MA) News 1981-82; Salem (MA) Evening News 1982-85; United Press International 1985; Boston Herald 1985-present.

Personal: Single. “Close to the altar a few times  – three arrests, no convictions – but surely maturity will kick in soon and I’ll complete the trip.”

Favorite restaurant (home):  “Too hard to narrow it to one.  And I’d piss off too many friends in the business if I did.”

Favorite restaurant (away): Presently in the NBA: Billy Coerper’s Five-O’Clock Club, Milwaukee. “The name has changed and it’s gone a bit upscale, but it retains much of the charm of an old-time corner bar restaurant.” Honorable mention: Rendezvous Barbecue in Memphis; Gibson’s in Chicago; In-n-Out Burger out west “the one on Lincoln Blvd. and Sepulveda is so close to an LAX runway that I once lost a french fry in the vortex of a Korean Air Lines 747.”  Read more...
