Gene D. Phillips, Ph.D. Named Professional of the Year in Higher Education
Gene D. Phillips, Professor and Author of 22 Works
CHICAGO, IL, November 10, 2009 /University PR News/ -- Gene D. Phillips, Ph.D., Senior Professor for the English Department at Loyola University Chicago, has been named Cambridge Who's Who Professional of the Year in Higher Education. While inclusion in the Cambridge Who's Who Registry is an honor, only a small selection of members in each discipline are chosen for this distinction. These special honorees are distinguished based on their professional accomplishments, academic achievements, leadership abilities, years of service, and the credentials they have provided in association with their Cambridge Who's Who membership.
Gene D. Phillips, Ph.D. lectures on film history and modern literature as a senior professor of the English department at Loyola University Chicago. He is also an author with no less than 22 published titles on individual film directors, including the critical "Interviews (Conversations with Filmmakers)" series. Selected titles include "Creatures of Darkness: Raymond Chandler, Detective Fiction, and Film Noir," "Godfather: The Intimate Francis Ford Coppola," "Stanley Kubrick: Interviews," and "Beyond the Epic: The Life and Films of David Lean." His documentaries have appeared on PBS and cable and some are available on DVD as well. Most recently, he published "The Life and Films of Billy Wilder" and he contributed to an encyclopedia with two other scholars on Francis Ford Coppola. Publication is expected this year.
Noticing the interconnectedness between film and literature, Dr. Phillips decided to pursue a profession as a writer, documenting some of the world's greatest moments in film - and the people behind them. "My passion for film history and literature led me to write books about the subject," he elaborates. By integrating biography, criticism, good old fashioned journalism and authentic dialogues with insider subjects, Dr. Phillips has created a unique forum for film buffs and film professionals to explore.
Dr. Phillips received his Ph.D. in English literature from Fordham University, a master's degree in English literature and a bachelor of arts in English literature from Loyola University Chicago. He is a member of the Modern Language Association. Dr. Phillips is a former contributor to the Sight & Sound and Literature/Film Quarterly journals and has been a well-respected professional for nearly 40 years.
