Maggie Rosenthal, Editor

Maggie Rosenthal is an editor at Viking, which she joined in 2014 after graduating from Kenyon College with a degree in anthropology and a minor in English. She works on books for kids of all ages, from board books through young adult, as well as graphic novels, with an emphasis on middle grade and young adult. While she considers herself genre-agnostic, books that provide fresh angles into familiar stories, explore family relationships to cultural traditions, center LGBTQ+ experiences, or are tinged with horror are her kryptonite. She’s always looking for projects by marginalized creators across all genres and for all reading levels. When she’s not editing, you can find her baking bread and listening to podcasts—or organizing her oversize collection of clogs.
