Philip Carr-Gomm lives in Sussex, England, with his wife Stephanie.
From an early age Philip studied with Ross Nichols, the founder
of The Order
of Bards Ovates and Druids. He has a degree in psychology
from University College London, and trained in psychotherapy for
adults at The
Institute of Psychosynthesis, and in play therapy for children
with Dr Rachel Pinney. He also trained in Montessori education
with the London Montessori Centre, and founded the Lewes Montessori
School. In 1988 he was asked to lead The Order of Bards Ovates
and Druids, and he combines his role in the Order with writing,
and giving talks and workshops.
His books are published by HarperCollins, Random House, Simon &
Schuster, St.Martin’s Press, Quercus, John Murray, Granta
and Reaktion, and have been translated into many foreign language
editions.
