Howard Lovy – Editor

I began my career as a traditional newspaper journalist, but over the years have adapted to changes in my profession, covering everything from religion to science and technology. For much of the past decade, I've focused on independently published books, both as executive editor of Foreword Reviews and at the Alliance of Independent Authors.

An expert in Jewish issues, I am the former managing editor of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, and I've written extensively on the Holocaust, antisemitism, Jewish engagement, Jewish literature, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. My work has appeared in JTA, the Jewish Daily Forward, the Jerusalem Post, and many other publications.

I am also an experienced science and technology writer and editor. I helped launch a magazine covering nanotechnology. My work in nanotech was considered required reading among those who follow the societal implications of emerging technology. I specialize in making complex concepts understandable to a mainstream readership.

My journalism training has made me understand what a writer is trying to say and help them say it in as clear a way as possible. My book review experience has given me insight into what publishers, critics, and general readers look for in a manuscript. I work very closely with authors to make sure they are telling exactly the story they want to tell. I enjoy seeing their ideas and experience transform into a work ready for publication.
