}}Edward O. Phillips (born November 26, 1931) is a Canadian novelist, who has written both mystery novels and mainstream literary fiction. He is best known for his mystery novel series featuring gay detective Geoffrey Chadwick.[1]

Biography

Phillips has lived most of his life in Westmount, Quebec.[1] He earned a law degree from the Université de Montréal in 1956, but decided against legal practice. He subsequently graduated from Harvard University with a master's degree in Teaching, and later earned a second master's degree in English Literature from Boston University. After teaching school for seven years, he pursued a long-time interest in painting. His work was exhibited in five one-man and numerous group shows.

His first novel, Sunday's Child, was published in 1981.[1] Phillips won the Arthur Ellis Award in 1987 for his novel Buried on Sunday.[1] His short story "Matthew and Chauncy" was adapted by Anne Claire Poirier into the 1990 film Salut Victor.[2]
