Editorial Director, Erika Goldman of the Bellevue Literary Press, and Publisher, Jerome Lowenstein, MD

In April 2007 the Bellevue Literary Press announced the launch of its first season. Like the flourishing Bellevue Literary Review, of which it is an offshoot, the BLP is sponsored by New York University School of Medicine and committed to publishing writing of the greatest artistic and intellectual merit from the larger community, both medical and non-medical, while reflecting NYU’s excellence in scholarship, humanistic medicine, and science.

The aim of the Bellevue Literary Press is to produce original authoritative and literary works, both fiction and nonfiction, that focus on relationships to the human body, illness, health, and healing and range the intersection of the sciences and the arts. Its intended audience is the public at large, as well as medical and science professionals and academics interested in literate, jargon-free presentations of issues in their own and other disciplines.

The Bellevue Literary Press has recently attracted attention across the continent in newspapers from California to Nova Scotia, Texas, Florida and Missouri. Here is a a sample from the Washington Post.
