Author: Sylvia K. Miller
I have more than 20 years' experience in scholarly nonfiction book publishing, with a specialty in encyclopedias. Enthusiastic about digital publishing from the start, I was involved in some of the first online reference projects at Scribners in the 1990s and later spearheaded online reference as a publishing director at Routledge.
