The Person You Want to Be, with Eric Teplitz

Ep. 21: Philosophy Professor, Author, and Boxing Coach, Gordon Marino

Eric Teplitz / Gordon Marino Season 2 Episode 21

Gordon Marino taught philosophy for 27 years at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota, where he also served as Director of the Hong Kierkegaard Library.

Unlike most (all?) other philosophy professors, Gordon also had a parallel career in boxing: as a fighter, a trainer, a boxing correspondent for the Wall Street Journal, and a boxing coach to young men and women.

He has edited a number of philosophy texts including The Quotable Kierkegaard, Ethics: The Essential Writings, and Basic Writings of Existentialism.

He is also the author of Kierkegaard in the Present Age and the popular The Existentialist’s Survival Guide: How to Live Authentically in an Inauthentic Age, published by HarperOne in 2018.
