Fellowship History

We’re delighted to announce that we have selected the first recipient of the WMG Fellowship, Norma Perez-Hernandez.  

Norma was born in raised in the Bronx. She recently graduated from the City College of New York (CCNY) summa cum laude, majoring in English Literature and minoring in Theatre. Norma also completed the Publishing Certificate Program at CCNY, where she took courses including Books for Young Readers and The Editorial Process. Norma is currently a full time editorial intern with Kensington Publishing Corp. When she isn’t digging through the slush pile, Norma is usually on a stage near you—she can next be seen in the play Unburdened, premiering at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre later this June.
