Steve Holman Biography :

A familiar voice to Hawks fans, broadcasting ironman Steve Holman begins his 22nd season behind the mic on the Atlanta Hawks Radio Network. He has broadcast 1,439 consecutive Hawks games on radio, including playoffs, dating back to March, 1989. The streak is among the longest for radio-only play-by-play announcers in the NBA.

Holman worked his 1,000th consecutive Hawks radio broadcast on February 18, 2000 when Atlanta visited Golden State. His most recent milestone, number 1,400, came on January 30, 2006 against New York.

The 52-year-old Holman had done play-by-play and color commentary on Hawks broadcasts for 3½ years before taking over the full time play-by-play duties in 1989.

During the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games, Holman was part of Westwood One's/NBC National Radio coverage, calling play-by-play action for both the United States men's and women's gold medal basketball teams in addition to boxing.

Holman has been involved in the NBA since the early 1970s when he was broadcast assistant to the Boston Celtics' late play-by-play legend Johnny Most. Holman's first experience calling NBA action came in 1975 when Most lost his voice mid-game.

He has been a fixture on Atlanta radio since 1980 when he arrived to work on Falcons football and Atlanta Chiefs soccer.

Along with his numerous awards for sports reporting, Holman has also won the Georgia Associated Press Award for his Hawks broadcast coverage.

Holman and his wife Mary Jane reside in Newnan and are the parents of two grown sons, Steve Jr., and Scott. He was born March 5, 1954 in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
