Hi, I'm Philana Marie Boles, a writing powerhouse and media-savvy storyteller with 23+ years of experience creating impactful content across film, television, publishing, and pop culture.
As a journalist, features writer, and film/TV critic, I have contributed original coverage, critiques, and celebrity interviews to platforms with audiences in the millions.
My work blends editorial insight with voice, authenticity, and cultural relevance.
Whether I’m covering a buzzy new release, unpacking pop culture narratives, collaborating on book projects, or interviewing award-winning artists and icons, I aim to create stories that resonate—with readers, creatives, and the moment.
Here, you’ll find a curated collection of select features, reviews, and interviews that reflect my passion for the arts and storytelling along with my commitment to journalistic excellence.
Based in Los Angeles, with a satellite desk in Ohio (where I am originally from), my favorite beats are within the pop culture and arts & entertainment business, (including film, television, and literature) with a special passion for cultural relevancy and wellness or business associated.
A select list of the celebrities I have interviewed include:
-author Judy Blume
-author Ellen Hopkins
-Academy Award® nominated actress Rachel McAdams
-Academy Award® winning producer James L. Brooks
-actor Chad L. Coleman
-screenwriter and director Kelly Fremon Craig

With an SEO-driven approach, I can deliver long-form or short-form content. Besides journalism, I have had four published novels by major publishers and over thirty books ghostwritten.
