Fish Phillips was born and raised as the son of an enlisted Marine.

After attending high school in Hawaii, and top universities elsewhere, a genre-defying career path led him to writing.

Over decades he has served as a technology founder, medical researcher, college professor, web developer, screenwriter, filmmaker, program manager, and artist.

His academic background in science, art, cultural anthropology, and theology enables him to render rich worlds accessible to broad audiences.

As a multi-platform creator, his ambition is to share unique, high-concept, stand-alone stories with readers to delight, entertain, and cultivate their curiosity.

Based in Atlanta, he lives with his engineer wife and a teenage daughter who mocks him with "Look at daddy signing books like he's famous."
