Julian Phillips Biography

Julian Phillips is a three-time Emmy Award winner and nine-time nominee. He is also the recipient of the Edward R. Murrow Award, New York State Broadcasters Award, and the New York State Associated Press Broadcasters Association Award.

Phillips recently stepped down as the Deputy Commissioner of Public Information for the New York City Police Department, the nation’s largest law enforcement agency. As their chief spokesperson, he was the first African American to assume this role in the history of the department.

Julian has served for more than three decades both locally and nationally as a television and radio reporter, anchor, and talk-show host. He started his on-air career as a reporter for WNBC-TV where he was the lead morning live shot reporter and was part of the original Weekend Today in NY team, the first local weekend television news program in NYC. Julian hosted two public affairs shows at WNBC-TV, Positively Black and Metropolitan Mosaic. He worked briefly as a reporter for WCBS, before moving on to PIX11, where he served as a reporter and substitute anchor. While at PIX11 he also co-hosted the National Puerto Rican Day Parade, Hispanic Day Parade and co-hosted the national Macy’s Fourth of July Fireworks for a number of years. Under his hosting duties at PIX11, “Best Talk” received the NY State Broadcasters Award as “Best Public Affairs Show”. He also was an anchor and host for The Arise TV Network, where he hosted "Arise Review," an international news show, initially based out of Washington D.C. in the renowned Newseum Studios. Julian is perhaps best known nationally as the former co-host of "Fox & Friends Weekend" from 2002-2006. Julian served as fill-in news anchor at WBLS for the Steve Harvey Morning Show and is currently Executive Producer and host of "Eat & Argue," a political and current events debate show whose goal is to bring two people together over a meal to try and find common ground. "Eat & Argue" aired on The WNET Group stations; www.eatandargue.com.

Julian served as Communications Director on Capitol Hill and in the Brooklyn District of Congressman Edolphus "Ed" Towns. He is also a political analyst and has made appearances on MSNBC, PIX11, and the Arise TV Network to give his perspectives on national and global affairs. Respected by both Republicans and Democrats, he has advised leaders in both parties on campaign strategies and media training.

An accomplished chef, Julian has over 30 years of culinary experience and travels extensively to promote his culinary ventures. He is a partner with Fire in the Hole Seasonings, and developed the "Taste of Two Cities" all-purpose spice. His unique Cajun, Southern, Italian fusion cuisine, including his signature "Soundbite" blackened wings, has been recognized for its innovation. He and his wife Barbara King, a critically acclaimed jazz vocalist, opened the Sound Bite Restaurant in the Hell’s Kitchen section of New York City. Patrons dined on his cuisine, which received a 4.6 out of a 5-star rating, while listening to some of the world’s best jazz musicians.

He has written two spiritually based books; “Discovering Your Hidden Power, Unleashing the Power of Words” with noted theologian and Pastor, Dr. A.R. Bernard, and his soon to be published “Empirical Evidence, 16 Short Stories on God’s Presence.”

Julian serves on many advisory boards, including Purdue University’s College of Liberal Arts and Discovery Park boards and is a member of the Episcopal Archdiocese of Long Island’s Racial Justice & Reconciliation Commission.
