Project management for book publishers and packagers
I am a very experienced editorial project manager, overseeing titles from commissioning to press.
My responsibilities in project management have included:
• commissioning and briefing authors
• managing budgets
• scheduling
• flatplanning
• managing teams of designers, picture researchers, copyeditors, proofreaders, indexers and production staff
I have been the main liaison between author and publisher and have had significant input in the design process, commissioning illustrations, selecting images, and commenting on covers and layouts.
My projects include an 816-page college textbook on the history of modern art; a showcase book of contemporary printmaking; practical guides to digital photography and video-making; and a series of biographies aimed at fostering literacy in children.
