Philip R. Rogers was born and raised in Newton, North Carolina. He was reared on the works of H.P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Ray Bradbury, the films of Vincent Price, Hammer Horror Movies, Ray Harryhausen, Buster Keaton and a heavy dose of horror comics like Creepy, Eerie and Vampirella. These works were a major influence on him when he developed an interest in art. He has been involved in art for over 20 years. His style was influenced by the works of Frank Frazetta, Boris & Bernie Wrightson. Philip is a member of the Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists. His works have been commissioned for numerous private collections as well as publishers that include LBF Books, Horror Express Magazine, Tigress Press, Sultry Heat Press, Silver Lake Publishing, Tenoka Press, Dark Wisdom Magazine, and Chaosium Inc.
Philip lives in Claremont, N.C. with his wife Janet (a jewelry artist) who constantly inspires and encourages him. They share their home with a passel of cats and one skeleton affectionately called "Mr. Bones".
