Grand Central is launching a new book imprint called Grand Central Life & Style. Imprints Wellness Central and Springboard Press will be merged into the new imprint. Karen Murgolo will oversee the new imprint; she is currently the publisher of Springboard. Publisher's Weekly reports:
Topics falling into the Life & Style line will range widely, including everything from cooking to beauty & fashion to home design to fitness and parenting. Currently slated titles include Food Network star Claire Robinson's 5 Ingredient Fix and Good Morning America pet care expert Dr. Marty Becker's Your Dog: The Owner's Manual.
Grand Central's Matthew Ballast told PW that the new imprint will release between eight and twelve titles a year and will focus on more commercial titles.
