Stevie Williams for Living Proof Radio. Full podcast episode now on the Living Proof Patreon.
Stevie Williams is one of the most influential street skateboarders of his generation. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he came up skating at the legendary LOVE Park, officially known as John F. Kennedy Plaza. There, he helped establish Philadelphia as a global destination for street skating, with LOVE Park’s signature granite ledges, open plaza, and the fountain gap becoming a proving ground for some of the most progressive East Coast skating of the 1990s.
At 14, Williams left Philly for San Francisco, one of skateboarding’s epicenters at the time, where he immersed himself in the city and filmed at iconic spots such as EMB (Justin Herman Plaza) and Pier 7, appearing in videos for Chocolate, TransWorld, FTC videos, and more.
In 2002, he founded Dirty Ghetto Kids (DGK), turning a phrase tied to his Philadelphia upbringing into a brand. Over the years, DGK has released several full-length projects and grown into one of skateboarding’s most recognizable brands.
