“People are reading!” said Paul Bogaards, Executive Director of Publicity, Promotion, & Media Relations at Alfred A. Knopf, an imprint of Penguin Random House (U.S.). “We’re very optimistic!” As Knopf approaches its 100th anniversary in 2015, the imprint has good reason to celebrate a storied literary legacy. During one of the regular industry visits sponsored by the NYU-SCPS M.S. in Publishing: Digital & Print Media program, students met with Bogaards as well as with editors, publicists, and a top art director to learn more about the traditions and philosophy of publishing at Knopf.
