Papa Ron (Ron Phillips) is a Cannes award-winning writer-director and former senior creative director for two international ad agencies. As a commercial director, he helmed thousands of commercials for America’s premier advertisers and won every major advertising award. His articles have been published in McCall’s, TV Guide, Reader’s Digest and several trade publications. He wrote and directed the cult favorite drag racing film, Funny Car Summer, and has authored two novels, Donnyboy and The Hands of Juan Perón.

When he became a "senior," Papa Ron realized two things: a) that he abhorred the term and b) that communications to his cohort were usually patronizing or way off-base—hence, Papa Ron’s Older & Wiser Snapshots℠. Based on his experiences and those of his friends and contemporaries, Papa Ron shares simple, quick tips that offer smart solutions to issues that older people really care about.
