Timeline

1921

Philip James Thomas (March 26, 1921 – January 26, 2007) was a Canadian teacher, musician and folklorist.

Born in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, Thomas entered the RCAF near the outbreak of World War II.

With the Air Force, he was engaged in development of Canada’s radar technology.

He saw service in Europe and India.

After World War II on discharge from the RCAF, Thomas returned to BC.

He studied education at the University of British Columbia.

1928

He played both guitar and banjo, and he and his wife Hilda Thomas (1928–2005) often performed together at folk festivals in British Columbia and western Canada.

1949

His first teaching assignment in 1949 was in Pender Harbour.

Through contact with local residents he developed an interest in folklore and storytelling through song.

1953

In 1953 he was hired by the Vancouver School Board as an art teacher.

1959

Thomas developed his own philosophy of children’s art education that “honoured the child and how the child makes art.” In 1959 he co-founded the Vancouver Folk Song Circle (later the Vancouver Folk Song Society), which became a vehicle to collect additional material.

The Song Circle is the oldest folk music society in Canada.

1964

In 1964-65, he was principal of The New School, a private, progressive school in East Vancouver.
