Patrick Phillips Biography

Patrick Philips was born in Atlanta, Georgia. He earned a BA from Tufts University, an MFA from the University of Maryland, and a PhD in English Renaissance literature from New York University. He is the author of the poetry collections "Chattahoochee" (2004), winner of the Kate Tufts Discovery Award, "Boy" (2008), and "Elegy for a Broken Machine" (2015), a finalist for the National Book Award. Through his poems, Philips frequently tells stories of earlier generations of his white, working-class family’s life in Birmingham, Alabama; in his work, he also grapples with race relations, the complex and violent dynamics of family relationships, and parenthood.

Phillips’ first book of nonfiction, "Blood at the Root: A Racial Cleansing in America," was published by W. W. Norton and named a best book of 2016 by The New York Times, The Boston Globe, and Smithsonian.

His work has appeared in many publications, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Poetry, Ploughshares, and The Nation, and his honors include the Kate Tufts Discovery Award, a Pushcart Prize, and the Lyric Poetry Award from the Poetry Society of America. Phillips teaches writing and literature at Stanford.
