YPG Discount: BIGNY Presents Groundbreaking Women: The Second Wave
After last year’s incredibly popular program on Groundbreaking Women in Publishing, BIGNY is thrilled to announce its follow-up program—Groundbreaking Women: The Second Wave. This program features a lively panel of high-power female publishing professionals who will share their experiences—the good and the bad—from when publishing first began to shift from being so male-dominated. Speakers include:
Barbara Marcus, President & Publisher, Random House Children’s Books
Janet McCarthy Grimm, Vice President, Lindenmeyr Paper
Linda Palladino, Vice President & Director, Random House Children’s Production
Moderated by Karen Romano, Director of Business Development, Thomson-Shore
The event will take place on Tuesday, April 12 at Random House (1745 Broadway), Second Floor. Beer, wine, hors d’oeuvres, and networking begin at 5:15 pm, the program itself begins at 6:15 pm. BIGNY is happy to offer a discounted entry rate of $20 to all YPG members (typically $60 for nonmembers, and $40 for members). If you cannot or would not like to attend the networking hour, you may attend the presentation only for $5.
