Phillips was born in [[Kenosha, Wisconsin]] and spent most of his early years in [[Racine, Wisconsin]].<ref>http://www.rottentomatoes.com/news/1696574/meet_a_critic_michael_phillips</ref> From 2006 through August 2008, he appeared frequently on ''[[At the Movies with Ebert & Roeper]]'', first as one of numerous guest critics filling in for [[Roger Ebert]] while he was on medical leave, and becoming a semipermanent cohost with [[Richard Roeper]] in the months before Roeper and Ebert ended their association with the series. On August 5, 2009, Phillips was hired along with New York Times critic [[A.O. Scott]] to replace hosts [[Ben Lyons]] and [[Ben Mankiewicz]], in an attempt to return the show to its roots after a year-long ratings drop. |
