This year we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Star Watch, our annual program dedicated to recognizing and honoring rising talent in the publishing and bookselling businesses.
The class of 2024 is stronger than ever and features some of the best young professionals from all corners of industry—publicists, editors, agents, booksellers, marketers, and everything in-between—bright, energetic people who will drive and change the book business in the coming years.
While this year’s honorees and finalists hail from all corners of the United States and Canada, they have, according to the people who nominated them, much in common: motivation and kindness, determination and passion, patience and integrity, and, of course, an abiding love of books.
The individuals featured here are the future of publishing. Please join us in congratulating the class of 2024!
