Description
TEN SPEED PRESS was founded in 1970 at Telegraph and Bancroft Way in Berkeley, California. Philip Wood, founder and publisher, began his career with Barnes & Noble in 1962 and in 1965 at Penguin books. He was in charge of Penguin Books in Baltimore and New York in 1969 before founding his own company shortly following the death of Penguin founder, Alan Lane, his mentor.
Ten Speed started with Anybody’s Bike Book which is still in print and has sold nearly a million copies. Ten Speed built its worldwide reputation with well-known titles like What Color Is Your Parachute?; wonderful cookbooks like Moosewood Cookbook and the magnificent Charlie Trotter books from Chicago; and such unclassifiable delights as White Trash Cooking, Why Cats Paint, and Flattened Fauna. Ten Speed Press currently publishes 150 books a year under all of its imprints.
CELESTIAL ARTS was acquired in 1983 and it continues to publish a diverse list of health, parenting, and spirituality titles. Famous books include Love Is Letting Go of Fear, Staying Healthy with the Seasons, and five books by wonderful SARK. Celestial Arts also publishes a large list of posters.
