Phil Cousineau (Columbia, South Carolina, 26 November 1952) is an American author, lecturer, independent scholar, screenwriter, and documentary filmmaker. ==Career== Phil Cousineau was born in an army hospital in Columbia, South Carolina. He has worked as a sportswriter and taught screenwriting at the American Film Institute (AFI). American mythologist Joseph Campbell was a mentor and major influence; Cousineau wrote the documentary film and companion book about Campbell's life, The Hero's Journey. The author of more than 25 nonfiction books, Cousineau has more than 15 documentary screenwriting credits to his name, including the 1991 Academy Award-nominated Forever Activists. Seminal works include, ''Soul: An Archaeology, Readings from Socrates to Ray Charles'', which Los Angeles Times columnist Jonathan Kirsch reviewed as "Inspiring, often mind-blowing, sometimes even a little scary," 〔''Los Angeles Times'', March 2, 1994〕 and the best-selling book, ''The Art of Pilgrimage: The Seeker's Guide the Making Travel Sacred'', described in the Austin American-Statesman as "If Joseph Campbell, the Dalai Lama and Bill Moyers were to have collaborated on a book about journeys...I suspect it would look very much like ''The Art of Pilgrimage''." Cousineau worked with religion scholar Huston Smith on three books as well as four documentary films on contemporary Native American issues. His books have been translated into nine languages. According to the ''San Francisco Chronicle'', "Phil Cousineau has long been a powerful presence in the (Francisco ) Bay Area literary scene, but he is best known as a filmmaker and...writer who has carried on and reinterpreted the work of Joseph Campbell, especially regarding the omnipresent influence of myth in modern life." 〔''San Francisco Chronicle'', May 8, 2005〕 Cousineau grew up just outside of Detroit, once known as "the Paris of the Midwest,” with French Canadian roots. While moonlighting in a steel factory he studied journalism at the University of Detroit. Before turning to writing books and films full-time, Cousineau’s peripatetic career also included playing semi-professional basketball in Europe, harvesting date trees on an Israeli kibbutz, painting 44 Victorian houses (also known as Painted Ladies in San Francisco), teaching, and leading art and literary tours to Europe.
