Booted PW Editor-in-Chief Lands at Time Warner Book Group
Nora Rawlinson, who was abruptly fired last month from her role as editor-in-chief of Publishers Weekly, has been named vice president of library services at Time Warner Book Group.
Rawlinson was a librarian before beginning her magazine career in 1988 as the
book review editor for Library Journal. She moved on to sister publication Publishers Weekly in 1992.
"I have admired Nora from the first instant I met her at an ALA fifteen years ago," TWBG chairman and CEO Laurence Kirshbaum said in a release. "She is a great talent." Rawlinson begins her post on March 1, reporting to president and COO Maureen Mahon Egen.
At the beginning of the year, PW brass replaced Rawlinson with Sara Nelson, a longtime book journalist and author of So Many Books, So Little Time (Putnam, 2003). In October, PW parent company Reed Business also brought in a new publisher, William McGorry, replacing Joe Tessitore.
At the time of Rawlinson's dismissal from PW, an article in the New York Times stated, "Publishers Weekly has faced many of the problems confronting general newsweekly magazines, including growing competition from daily electronic publications and Internet sites that cover the same ground."
