Philip Orbanes

Philip E. Orbanes is an author, a founding partner and currently president of Winning Moves Games in Danvers, Massachusetts. Orbanes is a graduate of the Case Institute of Technology (now Case Western Reserve University). He was a Senior Vice President for Research and Development at Parker Brothers until the 1990s. Orbanes has also served as Chief Judge at U.S. National and World Monopoly tournaments.

Orbanes has written two books about the board game Monopoly (his book "The Monopoly Companion" has been printed in two distinct editions). He also wrote a book about the history of Parker Brothers from the 1880s to the start of the 21st century. His book about the card game Rook, however, is only found packaged along with the game's cards, published by Winning Moves Games. Orbanes also authored articles for "The Games Journal" on acquiring the rights to out of print games, and the card game, Canasta.
