What’s BEA’s Mission?

| 10/20/2008 @ 06:00AM

I read your article on the BEA and BEC (Oct. 6). Here’s my take: I have been a book rep for 33+ years (and was a bookseller for a couple of years before that). I’ve represented major New York publishers, regional Northwest publishers, a regional wholesaler and currently I am a commission rep.

Play It as L.A.

by Bruce Wagner | 04/28/2008 @ 06:00AM

Of course you've already heard that the Hollywood sign and the entire mountain it resides on is for sale. Maybe you didn't. It was ironic news a few months ago. No one who lives here cares, and why should they. Not long ago, some preservation crazoid tried to save an apartment Charles Bukowski once rented.
BEA Back to L.A.

After Nelson’s Pullout, Publishers Ponder BEA

by Rachel Deahl with reporting by Michael Coffey | 04/21/2008 @ 06:00AM

Is BEA worth it? That question has been whispered among industry types for years when the topic turns to the goliath of business trade shows, BookExpo America. The question resurfaced when Nashville-based religion publisher Thomas Nelson announced last week that it is dropping out of the show. Nelson, which will also skip ICRS, the Christian equivalent to BEA, said that the “economic down...

By Calvin Reid | 02/13/2008 @ 03:36PM
