Five design awards for JHU Press at the New York Book Show

JHU Press art director, Martha Sewall, shared the wonderful news that an armful of JHUP books won awards at the recent New York Book Show. She reports that the annual event, sponsored by the Book Industry Guild of New York, is “a big show that includes entries from New York publishers along with university presses.” Congratulations to Martha and her talented team for this much-deserved recognition from book industry colleagues. We invite you, in spirit of celebratory excess, to use promo code “HDPD” to receive a 30% discount when you order your copies of these award-winning books.
