Joanna Ng joined TarcherPerigee in 2012, where she focuses on the categories of personal growth, self-help, and inspiration—including books on social justice issues, education, spirituality, pop science/psychology, parenting/relationships, and memoir.

She enjoys working with a diverse group of authors who have compelling stories and powerful insights to share—she is always learning something new from them. She edited A Mind for Numbers by Barbara Oakley, The Inner Work of Racial Justice by Rhonda Magee, The Brave Learner by Julie Bogart, and Homecoming by Thema Bryant.
