Sylvia Lewis, Director of Publications, American Planning Association

Joanne Shwed has edited more than a dozen books for us. She does a great job—promptly, accurately—and she’s fun to work with. All of our authors have enjoyed working with Joanne and not one has found any mistakes in the finished product. Joanne is also a one-stop shop. We send her a raw manuscript; she delivers finished pages ready for the printer. She does all the editing and page layouts, all the while serving as the main contact person for our authors. We get an excellent product that’s delivered on time. Joanne sweats the details. What more could a publisher want?
