Passion. Pride. Purpose.
About Paul Katz
Councilor, Waltham Ward 7
Why did I run for City Council? Simple. Because of a passion to stand up for our community.
I have been a resident of Waltham, both a renter and homeowner, for nearly 25 years. I am married to Sharon Marie Grazioso Katz. Our son, Jacob, attended Stanley Elementary. He was an eighth-grader at McDevitt Middle School when I was elected to office, and is now a student at Waltham High School. I have worked with the Reagle Music Theatre of Waltham for 40 years as a music director, arranger, and conductor. I hold a degree in Economics from Brandeis University. Professionally, I am a marketing leader who has supported the growth of leading startups and established companies. I recently worked as a Senior Marketing Manager at Dun & Bradstreet, and am now consulting on product launches and branding strategies with bio-science companies..
I’ve seen what can happen when residents unite to make their voices heard and stand up for what they believe. This is how positive change happens, and this is the passion that ignited my campaign to represent Ward 7 on the Waltham City Council.

“For many years Paul has demonstrated a consistent effort to be informed, but more importantly engaged in the matters impacting Waltham and Ward 7 specifically. I believe Paul would first and foremost listen to the voices in our ward and use those conversations to make responsible decisions that protect the interests of Ward 7 residents on the council floor. Paul is a friendly neighbor, a good friend and simply a good person. I will confidently be voting for Paul in November and I hope you will consider giving him your vote as well.”
