Philip Harnden

PHILIP HARNDEN is a Quaker writer and the author of Journeys of Simplicity: Traveling Light with Thomas Merton, Bashō, Edward Abbey, Annie Dillard & Others.

Harnden served as publisher of The Other Side, a magazine of spirituality and social action, for approximately twelve years, and worked as a correspondent for Religion News Service and a commentator on North Country Public Radio.

When he’s not writing, Harnden engages with subjects ranging from the land rights of Native Americans to the spiritual life of artist Fritz Eichenberg. This breadth of concern with place, faith, and human action runs through his writing.
