HarperCollins Christian Publishing has seen several changes to its leadership team in recent months. Following the death of HCCP's SVP and group publisher Brian Hampton in June, his predecessor, David Moberg, delayed retirement until a replacement was found. While Don Jacobson was hired as SVP and books group publisher in September, HCCP has reorganized its leadership roles through a number of recent promotions. Several members of the editorial staff have been named vice president as well as publisher of their departments. In light of these changes, PW has compiled a list based on the best information available about the editorial leadership of HCCP and its Zondervan, Thomas Nelson, and HarperCollins Focus (HC Focus) subsidiaries.
