> encourage you to look at this extremely valuable profile (and the
> others
> in the Ninth, too, if you've missed seeing it up to now).
>
> I've also heard from Jill Davis who was Susie Morgenstern's U.S.
> editor
> at Viking. I had thought about trying to locate Jill before sending
> the
> first message to everyone, but then I went ahead and sent it off
> without
> following through on my own good intention. Jill has reminded me that
> the U.S. publisher of "It's Not Fair!" (1983) was Farrar Straus
> Giroux.
