Career
Upon finishing high school, Philip became a world traveler and worked as a reporter, and as a semi-pro hockey player. For most of his life, however, he was a freelance writer. His first book was Coast Goard, Ahoy! (1943), followed by over twenty other works, mostly written for the juvenile market. Several of his more popular titles included Center Ice, Blackburn's Headhunters (filmed as Surrender - Hell! in 1959), The Day of the Drag Race, and Argentine Road Race. His last book (with Harold L. Leland under the joint pseudonym "John Blaine") was Danger Below (1968), the final novel in the juvenile science-fiction series "Rick Brant Science-Adventure Stories."
