Louis Joshua Marinoff is een filosoof, auteur en filosofisch practicus. Hij is de Founding President van de American Philosophical Practitioners Association (APPA). Zijn werk richt zich op het toepassen van filosofische principes in het dagelijks leven, waarbij hij individuen begeleidt bij het oplossen van complexe problemen door middel van bedachtzame introspectie en beredeneerde dialoog. Marinoff overbrugt de kloof tussen abstract filosofisch denken en praktische, reële uitdagingen.
