Richard M. Capobianco is an American philosophy professor and one of the leading commentators on the thought of the 20th century German philosopher Martin Heidegger. His four books, Engaging Heidegger, Heidegger's Way of Being, Heidegger's Being: The Shimmering Unfolding, and In Heidegger's Vineyard: Reflections and Mystical Vignettes^[1] have led the way to a renewed appreciation of Heidegger's core concern with Being as temporal radiant emergence or manifestation. He has also brought Heidegger into closer proximity with American authors such as Walt Whitman, Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Muir, and E. E. Cummings, and with English poets such as William Wordsworth and Gerard Manley Hopkins.

Capobianco received a B.A. in economics and philosophy from Hofstra University in 1979. He was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa in 1978. He is currently a professor of philosophy at Stonehill College in North Easton, Massachusetts. He earned his M.A. and Ph.D. in philosophy at Boston College, where his principal teacher and mentor was the preeminent Heidegger commentator William J. Richardson, who also wrote the foreword to his book Engaging Heidegger. Capobianco teaches courses on Existentialism, Hermeneutics, American Philosophy, and Aesthetics, and he has received several awards for teaching excellence, including a national recognition^[2] from the Princeton Review.
