We love Norma Perez-Hernandez (editor at Kensington Publishing Corp) for her warmth and humor, and the way she makes publishing approachable, thoughtful and kind.
You’ll hear how much she cares for her authors, the enormous number of things she does each day, and her ideas on how we can move the industry forward.
We also talk about how genres change–how rom coms simply could not work when she started in publishing but are thriving now–and what this means for trends in the industry.
We’re sure you’ll love Norma just as much as we do.
Norma Perez-Hernandez is editor at Kensington Publishing Corp. She has worked on a variety of projects, including fiction, romance, mysteries, thrillers, and non-fiction. A New York City native, Norma studied English literature at the Macaulay Honors College at The City College of New York and is a graduate of the Publishing Certificate Program at City College. She is thrilled to build a list with diverse authors and books. @normajeanesays
