A native New Yorker, Ward Calhoun got his start in publishing at John Boswell Associates, a literary agency/book packager. While there he helped develop several best-selling humor titles including French for Cats and O.J.’s Legal Pad, as well as the HarperCollins 365 Ways to Cook… series. His next stop was Bishop Books where he acted as both a writer and editor on several books for Sports Illustrated. He was later promoted to Managing Editor and oversaw the production of titles ranging from science to entertainment.

Most recently, Ward has been working as a Senior Editor at Hylas Publishing in Irvington, New York where his projects have included books on music, fitness, and history. During this time he’s also managed to write a book or two, including The Llama Sutra (2006) and Must-See Movies (2008). He’s currently looking for nonfiction titles in the areas of sports, humor, and pop culture.
