BIO

Cecilia Molinari, born in Los Angeles to Argentine parents, grew up in both the United States and Argentina. Both of these cultures, languages, and countries are ever present in her life and her work. With this unique ability to fully understand these two worlds, she embarked on her publishing journey after college, which took her through the realms of Houghton Mifflin Publishing and HarperCollins Publishers as a full-time employee, and other publishers, including Random House and Simon & Schuster, as a freelance editor.

After many years in the production editorial department at Houghton Mifflin Publishing and HarperCollins Publishers, she found her niche at the latter as editor and managing editor for Rayo, the HarperCollins Latino imprint that published books in both Spanish and English. While at Rayo, she spearheaded numerous celebrity books in English and Spanish as well as Rayo’s exclusive Esenciales collection of Latin American and Spanish contemporary classics, and managed the joint venture between Rayo and Grupo Planeta. Now, she brings all this wealth of experience to you, in hopes that she can contribute her grain of sand to help keep books alive and thriving for all of us to enjoy.
