My clients include scholars from distinguished universities around the globe, and right here in my own neighborhood of Berkeley, California. I also work with independent authors, corporations, and institutions. Over the years, I have been fortunate to cultivate long-term relationships built on respect, trust, and collaboration not only with my authors but with the acquiring editors who often refer them to me.
