Lisa Bintrim – Editor

I'm a proofreader, copy editor, and educational content developer with 25+ years of experience in academic publishing, educational media, and children's librarianship. I work primarily with nonfiction, educational, and academic manuscripts — helping authors clarify their arguments, strengthen their structure, and reach the readers they're writing for.

My editorial background spans academic press (Duke University Press, Johns Hopkins University Press, Taylor & Francis), practitioner publishing (ASCD's Educational Leadership), and educational content development for audiences ranging from early childhood educators to general readers. I hold a PhD in Anthropology and an MA in Library and Information Studies, which means I bring both research literacy and genuine subject matter depth to the manuscripts I work on.

I specialize in:

* Nonfiction and academic manuscripts across the social sciences, education, and child development

* Educational content for practitioner and general audiences

* Early childhood, literacy, and K–12 education titles

* Manuscripts written by researchers, educators, and subject matter experts who need editorial support translating their expertise into accessible prose

I'm known for thorough, substantive feedback that respects the author's voice while making the work significantly stronger. I'm currently accepting new copyediting projects and proofreading.
