C_427730.jpgBroadway Books editor-in-chief Stacy Creamer is moving to Simon & Schuster. Effective May 11, she will serve as VP and publisher of Touchstone Fireside, reporting to Free Press publisher Martha Levin.

Both Touchstone Fireside and Free Press will maintain independence between their respective editorial and publishing staffs. At Broadway Books, Creamer worked on Douglas Blackmon’s Pulitzer-Prize winning “Slavery by Another Name,” and Lauren Weisberger’s “The Devil Wears Prada,” and Elizabeth Edwards’s “Saving Graces.”

Here’s more from Levin’s statement: “Stacy has a proven eye for high-quality books that have broad appeal … We are delighted to welcome a publishing executive of her caliber to Touchstone Fireside.”
