- Robert_B._Wyatt abstract "Robert B. Wyatt (born May 19, 1940 in Miami, Oklahoma) has had a long career devoted to the publication of fiction, commencing in 1962 at the Doubleday Book Store chain in New York City, where he was manager of the flagship store’s paperback department. After two years of bookselling he moved to Avon Books, where he later was editorial director. In subsequent years he held similar positions at Delacorte Books for Young Readers and Ballantine Books. Though these firms were primarily paperback reprint concerns, he was able to issue original literature and to launch the careers of an eclectic list of current authors. Honored by Publishers Weekly with its Carey-Thomas Award for “excellence in quality publishing in a mass market format,” he also received the Literary Market Place Award for his work at Ballantine, where he conceived The Available Press, employing unusual editorial, design, printing, and distribution schemes for nearly a hundred original titles.At Avon (publishers) he edited and published first or early work by many emerging writers, including Russell Banks, William Kotzwinkle, Fanny Howe, Paul Monette, David Plante, Gregory Mcdonald, Michael McDowell, Marianne Wiggins, Thomas M. Disch, and Frank Herbert. In translation, he also published works by Reinaldo Arenas, Márcio Souza, Quim Monzó, Monique Wittig, Jorge Amado, Lygia Fagundes Telles, and many novelists of Latin American Boom - the explosion of interest in South American literature in the early eighties. Later at Delacorte press, he published the first young adult novels by R. R. Knudson and Norma Fox Mazer and Harry Mazer. At Ballantine Books, sometimes in association with other Random House imprints, he published novels by Charles Palliser, Sarah Smith (writer), Jon Hassler, Paul Rudnick, Richard North Patterson, Rafael Yglesias, W. P. Kinsella, Bryce Courtenay, and Katherine Neville. His Available Press issued novels by Pat Barker, David Handler, Jonathan Strong, Derek Raymond, Sabrina Murray, and Patric Kuh; translations of works by Moacyr Scliar, Rosario Ferré, Ernesto Sabato, Quim Monzó and Ignacio de Loyola Brandao; poetry by William Heyen and Antler (poet), and titles in the early days of graphic books by David Suter and Janwillem van de Wetering with Paul Kirchner. His imprint at St. Martin’s Press included works published from 1994 to 1997 by Anita Diamant, Douglas Preston, Katherine Vaz, Paullina Simons, Linda Nevins, Kevin Brownlow, Jean Brody, Douglas Unger, Bill Richardson, Patti Kim, and Calvin Baker.In 2002 he published in association with a Woodstock, N.Y., bookstore Janice King's TAKING WING: POEMS FROM THE OREGON OUTBACK TO THE HUDSON VALLEY as A Wyatt Book for The Golden Notebook. In recent years he has worked with Anne Bartlett, Nicholas Jose, and Azhar Abidi of Australia, Chandrahas Choudhury of India, and Musharraf Ali Farooqi and Michelle Farooqi of Canada and Pakistan.".
