Eamon Dolan will join the Simon & Schuster Publishing Group as a v-p, executive editor, effective October 1. Dolan began his publishing career in 1986 at HarperCollins, rose to the position of editor-in-chief at HMH before moving to Penguin Press in 2007. He returned to HMH in 2011 as v-p and editorial director of a new imprint, Eamon Dolan Books, which was closed in July of this year.
"Over the past three decades, Eamon has distinguished himself as one of the outstanding editors of nonfiction at work today," said S&S president and publisher Jonathan Karp. "At Simon & Schuster, Eamon will continue to do what he has done so brilliantly for years: Identify, edit, and publish some of the best writers and thinkers in the culture--authors whose works are relevant to understanding our times and how they are changing, and capable of being just as meaningful in the future as they are today. His interests range from current affairs to science to narrative history to psychology and popular culture, but all his books are united by their intention to palpably change readers' minds."
