I've spent my entire career in book publishing—first as a literary agent, where I got a first-class education from two of the most formidable agents in the business. (i also realized the assistant's impossible dream, plucking a proposal out of the slush pile that sold in a huge pre-empt and went on to be a big hollywood movie.) After six years as an agent, I became managing editor at Scribner books, where i worked on incredible titles from writers like Steve martin, jeannette walls, chuck klosterman, and my literary hero, stephen king, just to name a few. After that, I moved to chicago and triumph books/random house, where I got to geek out every day at work, editing books about sports (including a few about my beloved denver broncos).
a freelancer for the past fifteen years, i've done things i never would have dreamed of doing when i was an in-house editor. I've written sixteen books and have more than a million copies in print at last count. i earned a degree in graphic design from the school of the art institute of chicago. i also turned a lifelong love for vintage clothing into a thriving side business, left of the dial vintage.
if you really want to get me going, bring up scorsese and Schoonmaker, nicks AND mcVie, elway and sharpe, chapman and craig, the charles brothers (or coen, safdie, or even the frog brothers, for that matter). are *we* the next dream collab? Let's talk.
