Melanie Herschorn – Get ready to step into your spotlight as an authority. As a publisher and book marketing strategist for attorneys, wealth advisors and business owners, worldwide, I’m on a mission to empower authors to share your message with the world.

With my comprehensive background of over 20 years as a celebrity publicist, award-winning journalist in radio, print, and TV, as well as a clothing designer and entrepreneur, I am uniquely positioned to support authors to step into thought leadership and make a big impact with their book.

I earned a master’s degree in journalism from the University of Southern California, where I graduated first in my class. I grew up in Canada, have lived on both US coasts, and now reside in Arizona with my husband, daughter and son, our Cavalier King Charles Marty McDog and our Siberian cat Phoebe.

My new book, Make a Big Impact with Your Book, is available now.
