October 21, 2009 – Enhanced Editions is pleased to announce that David Graham, the former Managing Director of Granta Publications and Canongate Books is to work with the company as a Senior Advisor.
Graham brings 20 years of experience in trade publishing and will help drive Enhanced Editions’ strategic direction and growth. Graham was Managing Director at Granta from 2006 to 2009 and before that the Managing Director of Canongate Books from 2000 to 2006.
“Enhanced Editions has created the first genuinely innovative product in digital publishing,” said Graham, “and I am looking forward to helping develop the company’s commercial strategy to ensure that Enhanced Editions remains at the forefront of this new and exciting publishing channel.”
Enhanced Editions MD Peter Collingridge adds “Enhanced Editions is growing fast, and the unique reading experiences we create are attracting interest from across the publishing industry and the broader media landscape. David’s skills and experience will be invaluable at this critical stage in our development. On a personal note I am also delighted to build upon our long-standing relationship as a new chapter opens in publishing’s history.”
Enhanced Editions works with publishers to create bespoke digital books for the iPhone. Their release of Nick Cave’s Bunny Munro (in association with Canongate Books) was described by The Bookseller as “the moment digital publishing came of age”. Core features of the title included embedded video, audio, and a soundtrack synchronised to the text, as well as live news feeds and a range of interface features that enable readers to customise the reading experience.
