Michael McGlynn has held the city's top municipal administrative position since he was first elected in 1988. His consecutive years of service since then make him the longest-serving mayor in the Commonwealth.
Prior to being elected mayor, McGlynn represented Medford and Malden in the state's House of Representatives for 12 years. He is the son of John "Jack" McGlynn, who served as mayor in the 1970s.
McGlynn's office and his staff can be found on the second floor of City Hall.
