Phil Cooke (born August 31, 1954) is an American writer, television producer, and media consultant based in Burbank, California, as well as a critic of some aspects of contemporary American and American-influenced Christian culture. He is an evangelical Christian and, as Scott McClellan of Collide Magazine wrote, "At times, Cooke may appear to be Christian media's biggest critic but, as he is quick to point out, he criticizes because he loves." He is a long-time producer of nationally known religious and inspirational programming, and has worked for such clients as Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, The Salvation Army, Mercy Ships, Southern Baptists, The American Bible Society, The Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, and the YouVersion Bible App. Cooke produced Billy Graham's most-seen program, "Starting Over," which reached around 1.5 billion people in 200 countries in one day. Joel Osteen said, "Phil Cooke is one of the greatest communicators of our generation." He has also produced marketing and promotional materials for major motion picture studios in their national advertising campaigns. Cooke, with his wife Kathleen, founded Cooke Media Group in 1991. Cooke was a co-founder of TWC Films, which produced two 2008 Super Bowl commercials. (en) |
