Overview
I'm an experienced editor, having worked in illustrated book publishing, both in house and freelance, for nearly 30 years. I have edited, commissioned and managed many illustrated, non-fiction books across a range of subject areas, including history, cultural reference, military history, religion, science and nature, sport, travel and more. In addition to traditional book publishing I also work on other forms of information presentation, which includes business intelligence analyses and summary documentation; a wide range of commercial, museum and heritage industry materials; as well as a variety of periodic published reports.
