Autorenporträt
Philip Holden's life has spanned three continents, with its centre of gravity in Singapore, where he taught and researched Singapore and Southeast Asian writing at university in a three-decade long career. He is the author of critical, historical, biographical, and fictional writing, exploring the connections between social and historical narratives and questions of identity, belonging, and agency. Before his academic career he worked in children's theatre, as a union organizer, and as a residential social worker with refugees. Now a registered clinical counsellor, he explores the intersections of storytelling and mental health through work in Guided Autobiography and in facilitating lived-experience stories. Philip leads a migratory life between Singapore and Vancouver, Canada, and shares the ever-changing story of his life at www.pulauujong.org.
