Philip Haas

Philip Haas is an American film director and screenwriter, perhaps best known for his 1995 film "Angels and Insects." Other films include the highly regarded [ [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/music_of_chance/ Rotten tomatoes rates it 100% fresh based on ten reviews] ] "The Music of Chance" (1993), "The Blood Oranges" which featured Sheryl Lee, an adaptation of the Sommerset Maugham novel, "Up at the Villa", and "The Situation," a political thriller released in 2006.

He began as a documentary film maker, through the 1980s lensing ten profiles of unusual artists ["Spliced Wire" [http://www.splicedonline.com/00features/haas.html "The House that Haas Built"] ] with the theme "Magicians of the Earth."

Over the years he has tended to work closely with his wife, Belinda Haas, who shares credit as writer on several of his films.

In 2000 he was working on a biographical film on the silent film star Louise Brooks. That project has yet to come to fruition.

Haas currently lives with his wife, Belinda Haas, and two daughters in Tribeca in New York City. He taught at the Visual Arts program at Princeton University for two semesters, from spring 2007 to fall 2007, teaching documentary film and screenwriting.
