Phil Brown - Writer - Author - Journalist

Phil Brown is a respected arts journalist and commentator, poet and author who has worked for all the major news outlets in Australia and internationally.

For many years he has also written wry columns about his life and the vagaries of existence with occasional references to Dumb and Dumber.

“As an author I often write about myself,” Phil says. “And, if that sounds self-indulgent, you don’t know the half of it. Mind you if you read any of my memoirs – Travels with My Angst, Any Guru Will Do, The Kowloon Kid, and Confessions of a Minor Poet, all will be revealed. Existential angst reigns in all my work including my two books of poetry – Plastic Parables and An Accident in the Evening. Is that a good thing? You can be the judge of that.”

Phil is a popular presenter at festivals and events of an artistic or literary nature and is available for speaking and writing engagements. In fact, try shutting him up.
