Publicity Director Rina Gill is keeping the title, but moving from Century (at Random House) to the Corvus imprint at Grove Atlantic Books. She takes up her duties with the new publisher in early January 2010. In her new job, she’ll be reporting to Associate Publisher Karen Duffy.
Duffy said “Rina is an extremely talented publicist and has been responsible for many high profile and creative campaigns. These have rightly earned her Publisher’s Publicity Circle awards and a reputation as one of the best book publicist in the business.”
Gill said “I’ve spent seven fantastic years at Century… alongside inspirational colleagues and terrific authors. But it’s time now for a change. I admire the vision and spirit of Atlantic—and the offices are closer to my house.”
Corvus just published its first book last week, Chalcot Crescent by Fay Weldon, and last week we announced their purchase of Chris Beckett’s The Holy Machine and another novel.
