The house of Mark Twain, the Brontë sisters, Thackeray, Dickens, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Maurice Sendak, Shel Silverstein, and Margaret Wise Brown, HarperCollins has a long and rich history that reaches back to the early nineteenth century and offers our publishing team a depth of experience that few others can rival—from the modest print shop that James and John Harper opened in 1817 to the global house we are today.
St. Martin's Press is one of the United States' largest publishers releasing over 800 titles a year under various imprints, which include St. Martin's Press (mainstream fiction, non-fiction bestseller books), St. Martin's Griffin (mainstream paperback books, including young adult, science fiction and romance), Minotaur (mystery, suspense, and thrillers) and Thomas Dunne Books (suspense and mainstream fiction and non-fiction).
St. Martin’s Press was founded in the UK in 1952 and has a long and respected history of publishing a solid and varied list. The company is the largest division of Macmillan and is dedicated to publishing emerging new authors, and offering a fresh perspective on classic genres, while maintaining a diverse and interesting range of books. The publisher's strength is derived from a dedication to solid publishing of many books, while consistently producing blockbusters. The company is based in the Flat Iron Building in the heart of New York City.
