Harper Lee Amy Jurskis Biography & Facts

This is a list of books published by Amistad Press, an imprint of HarperCollins acquired in late October 1999. It is the oldest imprint devoted to the African-American market, and takes its name from a slave ship on which a revolt occurred in 1839. Charles F. Harris (1934–2015) started in the 1970s the quarterly anthology of black writing Amistad at Random House, where he worked as a senior editor from 1967, and it "went through a number of collaborative publishing ventures with large publishers" before being launched in 1986 as the independent imprint Amistad Press Inc. Harris joined HarperCollins as vice president of the imprint at the time of the 1999 merger, and remained as editorial director until 2003. The current editorial director is Tracy Sherrod, who joined the Amistad imprint in 2013. Publishing about 10 titles a year, Amistad does not aim for commercial fiction success; it leans toward narrative nonfiction. As of December 2020, approximately 154 Amistad Press books are listed by the publisher as in print. 0-9 32 Candles: A Novel, Ernessa T.
