Our Staff and Interns

Over the last fifteen years, Corinthian has assembled a loyal, dedicated, international-class staff of extraordinarily talented writers, literary collaborators, editors, manuscript analysts, and graphic arts designers. All of them are passionately devoted to producing fine books for our extremely demanding corporate, scholarly, and independent authors and their readers.

The rave reviews that our books regularly receive from professional, unbiased reviewers such as Kirkus Reviews, the American Library Society Journal and Bookwatch, as well as countless newspaper, magazine, and five-star reader ratings on Amazon.com and other online booksellers are a testament to the quality of the work we do.

Our Interns

For over a decade, Corinthian has had a richly rewarding accredited working relationship with the College of Charleston, the Art Institute of Charleston, and Clemson University. Over thirty graduate and undergraduate students have completed semester-long internships with us. Here they get hands-on learning in all aspects of the publishing world, including literary research, personal interviewing, writing, editing, graphic design, book manufacture and eBook production, traditional and social network marketing, book club and bookstore promotional events, wholesale and retail book sales, and book distribution and shipping protocols.

Each intern works ten hours a week and the end of the semester receives a formal Certificate of Internship which they can use on their professional c.v. or resume. The following is just the start of the long list of our hard-working interns and the projects to which they contributed. Please help us regain contact with those with whom we've lost touch with by sending an email to editor@corinthianbooks.com.
