About

Writer, editor, and industry leader with over 15 years of experience covering book publishing. At Publishers Weekly I oversee various features and column, assigning and editing author profiles, and writing long-ranging features. I also write a weekly column, called Deals, which gives a snapshot of the notable book acquired by the major publishers, and am the author of the Publishers Weekly e-book PUBLISHING 101. On Twitter I'm @DeahlsDeals and @PW_Deals. As Executive Director of Programming for the U.S. Book Show (and, prior to that, the New York Rights Fair), I coordinate all aspects of the virtual and in-person program of the U.S. Book Show, from conceptualizing and executing industry and author panels, to identifying and booking author talent.In addition to my staff experience, I've written for a number of publications including Slate; The Boston Globe Magazine; Nylon; and O, The Oprah Magazine, on topics ranging from parenting to pop culture.
