About David Moldawer

At the start of my career, I spent a decade as a book editor at a slew of New York publishing houses, including St. Martin’s Press, McGraw-Hill, and Penguin, acquiring and editing bestselling nonfiction in the areas of business, technology, health, and memoir.

For another ten years now, I’ve helped authors shape and refine their manuscripts as an independent editor and consultant. I also write the Maven Game, a newsletter for experts, authors, publishers, and agents about making ideas and knowledge public—writing, speaking, sharing—without hating yourself in the morning.

I live outside New York City with my wife, illustrator and creative director Samantha Hahn, and our two children.
