Montefiore Press Information

The Montefiore Press was founded in 2005 by Joshua M. Sklare. When asked by a family member for help writing a book, Josh researched the field of private biographies and memoirs (commissioned books not available for sale) and saw that the books generally lacked the research and writing quality in commercially available books. The books he found lacked the in-depth background interviews and the well-edited, interesting narratives. This would not appeal to many philanthropists, entrepreneurs, and professionals looking to have such books created. The production of a private book, Lift Up Your Voice by Leonard P. Zakim, through Rose Sklare's Textbook Writers Associates played an integral role in the founding of the company. This led to extensive geneological research for one book and was followed by interest from several future clients. We could fill a niche in this small marketplace. And so, Montefiore Press was established.
