Bridget -- Freelance Editor

For sixteen years Bridget has been an editor at Publishers Weekly, where she covered every aspect of the book publishing and bookselling fields—including landing the exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey when she first started what has become the biggest book club in the world.

In 2007, the Harmony division of Random House published Bridget’s nonfiction book Visiting Life: Women Doing Time on the Outside. Named as a “hot summer read” by both U.S.A. Today and the San Francisco Chronicle, the bestselling book brought Bridget much media attention, including several interviews on National Public Radio, features in Marie Claire, Glamour and Elle, and an interview on the Today Show.

Bridget’s freelance journalism has appeared in The Chicago Tribune and Writer’s Digest and on Salon.com and NPR. Bridget has taught journalism at the State University of New York’s Purchase College and she has been a featured lecturer at the Simon Frasier University Publishing Program.

Bridget’s experience covering the book business as a journalist, as a sought-after publishing expert, and as a published author, give her a unique and informed insight into the book business. Bridget is quite selective about the book projects she takes on, but is eager to work with writers who wish to get published.  For more information contact us at: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
