Wikipedia description:

William Phillips (November 14, 1907 – September 13, 2002) was an American editor, writer and public intellectual who co-founded Partisan Review. Together with co-editor Philip Rahv, Phillips made Partisan Review into one of the foremost journals of politics, literature, and the arts, particularly from the 1930s through the 1950s. In all, Phillips headed up the publication for six decades. He was the last surviving member of the first generation of The New York Intellectuals, which The Guardian described as "that brilliant and cantankerous group who 'argued the world' for decades."
