KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Editor at Little, Brown Book Group UK (UK)
David Bamford
I am an editor at Little, Brown Book Group UK. I joined Little, Brown in 2013 from a literary agency and work across its literary imprints (Abacus, Virago, Fleet, Blackfriars and Little, Brown itself), commissioning mostly non-fiction books on a wide range of subjects. I am always looking to acquire unique, distinctive voices, and find fascinating stories that aren't being told elsewhere. Recent publications include Plucked!: The Truth About Chicken by Maryn McKenna, ADHD Nation: Children, Doctors, Big Pharma, and the Making of an American Epidemic by Alan Schwarz and James Forman Jr’s Pulitzer-winning Locking Up Our Own: Crime and Punishment in Black America. I am currently working on a new popular science book about the sun by Steve Jones.
