Kim Scott Walwyn prize shortlist released

The shortlist of the Kim Scott Walwyn prize was released today.

The prize was set up to honour the memory of Kim Scott Walwyn, a publishing director at Oxford University Press, who died in 2002 aged just 45, and aims to reward “outstanding achievements by women in publishing”.

This year’s shortlist is made up of Rebecca Carter, who is an editor at large at Random House, Susanna Lob, the head of marketing, reference and online publishing at Oxford University Press, and Annette Thomas, the managing director of Nature Publishing Group.

The winner, who will receive a cheque for £3,000, will be announced on May 10.
