Ira Silverberg

Throughout my decades-long career in literature and publishing, I have worked to give voice to marginalized communities. As the founder and publisher of High-Risk Books, I brought avant-garde literature to the forefront. I also published The Beatniks and Neil Strauss' international bestseller, The Game. Additionally, I served as an editor at Grove Press, a faculty member at Columbia University, and the director of the Literature Program at the National Endowment for the Arts.
