Lynn Henry, currently the publisher of House of Anansi Press, has been named publishing director for Doubleday Canada. According to a press release signed by Kristin Cochrane, Doubleday’s new publisher (following the recent departure of Maya Mavjee), Henry “will acquire and edit her own list, as well as work closely with the editorial team on their acquisitions and editorial development.” Henry will begin at Doubleday on March 1.
Henry became Anansi’s publisher in 2005, after a stint as editor for Raincoast Books’ now-defunct publishing program.
