People, Etc.

January 3, 2018
By Erin Somers

Natalie Grazian has joined Martin Literary & Media Management as associate literary manager. Previously she was a sales representative for Norton.

At Putnam, Carolyn Darr and Madeline Schmitz have each been promoted to associate publicist.

The LA Times names Kima Jones as a 2018 “literary breakthrough.” She is the founder of Jack Jones Literary Arts, an LA-based book publicity firm that focuses on representing women of color. “With her discerning eye for literature, keen awareness of what makes a successful book in the digital age and drive to empower writers who have been marginalized in publishing, Jones is an important new voice on the national stage.”
