And Maya Bradford, who began her career at Abrams and Abrams ComicArts before becoming Director of Publicity at Melville House, will be the Assistant Publicity Director, Graphic and Licensing, for the three imprints.
Shaida Boroumand continues in her position as Associate Editorial Director, Licensing and Pop Culture, Ten Speed, with upcoming titles that include Dungeons & Dragons Lore & Legends, Heroes' Feast: Flavors of the Multiverse, and The Witcher Official Cookbook.
The three imprints publish a variety of graphic novels and RPG and media tie-ins, including the Eisner- and Hugo-nominated Dungeons & Dragons: Art & Arcana (see “Massive Visual History of ‘Dungeons & Dragons’”), the D&D Young Adventurer’s Guides (see “Jim Zub Pens ‘D&D Young Adventurer’s Guides’”), adaptations of George R.R.
