Early Career Committee
The Early Career Committee of the Children's Book Council creates dynamic programming to benefit the entire publishing staff community, focusing on those in their first five years in the industry. Our events range from the industry-wide annual Trivia Challenge to the intimate gatherings of the Publishing Luminaries series.
If you are an employee of a CBC member publisher and you would like to be added to the ECC mailing list, please e-mail Rachel.
The Committee
Elizabeth Kerins, chair (Farrar, Straus and Giroux); Meg Beade (Penguin YRG); Katherine Harrison (Alfred A. Knopf BFYR); Emily Heddleson (Penguin YRG); Tori Kosara (Scholastic, Inc.); Navah Wolfe (Simon & Schuster BFYR)
Trivia Challenge
Every November, randomly-chosen teams of industry staffers go head to head in a battle of the children's book minutiae, all for the glory of the delightfully tacky Golden Bunny trophies.
Publishing Luminaries series
By bringing together industry veterans with new employees, this series provides an opportunity for discussion and collaboration between those who have much to teach and those who have much to learn.
