St. Martin's Press

St. Martin was known for giving his cloak to a beggar, but St. Martin's Press certainly doesn't have to go begging for best-selling authors to publish. The company's stable of authors includes mystery writer Janet Evanovich (Plum Lovin') and thriller writers Dan Brown ("Digital Fortress"), Jeffrey Archer (Prison Diaries), and Robert Ludlum ("The Bourne Legacy"). St. Martin's Press signed romance maven Jackie Collins in 2005. A unit of Holtzbrinck Publishers, its imprints include St. Martin's Press, St. Martin's Minotaur, St. Martin's Griffin, and Thomas Dunne Books. It publishes some 700 titles annually. The company was founded in 1952 and became part of Holtzbrinck in 1995.
