Spiegel & Grau
Spiegel & Grau is a New York independent, multi-platform publisher founded by veteran editors Celina 'Cindy' Spiegel and Julie Grau. After Penguin Random House shuttered their acclaimed imprint in 2019, the pair relaunched as an indie house in 2021, deliberately capping their list at 15-20 books a year so each title gets full editorial care across print, audio, podcast, and screen. The house treats a story as an asset to be developed across formats rather than a single book to be printed, and its very first independent release, Catherine Raven's 'Fox and I,' hit the New York Times bestseller list out of the gate.
Callaway Digital Arts
Callaway Digital Arts - operating today as Callaway Arts & Entertainment - is a New York media and publishing house founded by Nicholas Callaway that designs and produces museum-quality illustrated books, luxury limited editions, award-winning children's apps, and immersive cultural experiences. The company is known for landmark titles including Madonna's Sex, The Beatles: Get Back, Bob Dylan: Mixing Up the Medicine, and a three-volume Sistine Chapel edition shot in gigapixel detail with the Vatican Museums.
Nicholas Callaway
Nicholas Callaway is a New York publisher, app maker, and television producer who has spent more than 40 years making books and media that push the limits of how art can be reproduced. As founder and CEO of Callaway Arts & Entertainment, he produced Madonna's 'Sex' (still the best-selling illustrated book of its era), David Kirk's 'Miss Spider' series, the $22,000 life-scale Sistine Chapel three-volume set, and the panoramic 'Bob Dylan: Mixing Up the Medicine.' In 2010 he spun off Callaway Digital Arts with backing from Kleiner Perkins, after Steve Jobs took notice of his children's apps, and went on to publish #1 hits like 'Endless Alphabet.'
