David Graham Phillips (October 31, 1867 - January 24, 1911) was an American novelist and journalist of the muckraker tradition.Phillips was born in Madison, Indiana. After graduating from high school, Phillips entered Asbury College (now DePauw University) - following which he received a degree from Princeton University in 1887. After completing his education, Phillips worked as a newspaper reporter in Cincinnati, Ohio, before moving on to New York City where he was employed as a reporter for The Sun from 1890 to 1893, then columnist and editor with the New York World until 1902. In his spare time, he wrote a novel, The Great God Success, that was published in 1901. The royalty income enabled him to work as a freelance journalist while continuing to write fiction. Writing articles for various prominent magazines, he began to develop a reputation as a competent investigative journalist. Phillips' novels often commented on social issues of the day and frequently chronicled events based on his real-life journalistic experiences. He was considered a Progressive and for exposing corruption in the Senate he was labelled a muckraker.

"Had anything in yet?" Kittredge inquired casually, late in the afternoon. "I wrote a column and a half yesterday and I found two lines among the City Jottings," replied Howard, reddening but laughing. "The first story I wrote was cut to three lines but they got a libel suit on it."
The Great God Success
"The Great God Success: A Novel" by David Graham Phillips David Graham Phillips was an American novelist and journalist. In this book, he conducts social commentary on America and the future he predicted for the country through his characters. In this book, readers follow a young man at university. He has his whole life ahead of him, and he's determined to be successful. Through hard work and any other means he can muster, he makes his way to the top of the social ladder, but soon he's no longer the boy he used to know.
Voice of the Democracy
Every aspect of the life and work of David Graham Phillips (1867-1911) seems contradictory: from his peaceful college days at Asbury (now DePauw) to his brutal murder in New York's Gramercy Park; from his genteel middle-class lifestyle to his savagery as a muckraker; from the sensational impact of his novels to their present relative neglect. Since Louis Filler views Phillips as a quintessential Progressive, he presents his subject's story against the backdrop of American Progressivism's rise. Phillips's achievements as both journalist and novelist reveal him as "the voice of the democracy," in Vachel Lindsay's phrase--a believer in the American Dream if only its betrayers were exposed and curbed. A reluctant muckraker, Phillips focused popular resentment against governmental corruption in his "Treason of the Senate" series, which helped bring about the 17th Amendment, providing direct election of U.S. Senators. Called "the leading American novelist" by H L. Mecken, Phillips celebrated self-reliant and upwardly mobile characters so long as they renounced "autocracy and plutocracy."
