Heather Alexander, Assistant Editor, Dial Books for Young Readers

Heather Alexander, Assistant Editor for Dial Books for Young Readers, acquires books for all age ranges, from picture books through young adult novels, and ushers them through the publication process. She edits the wildly popular Charlie and Lola picture books and also edited Jeanne Ryan‘s thought-provoking debut YA novel Nerve, in which a naive teen girl gets enmeshed in a deadly anonymous online game of dares. Heather will discuss what’s new in books for children and teens on “Writers Voices” on KRUU100.1FM Friday, Oct. 19 at 1 PM CST. Tune in via live stream tomorrow at kruufm.com.
