Caitlin Tutterow is an editor at Nancy Paulsen Books and worked at Putnam Young Readers before joining the Paulsen team in 2021. She’s looking for children’s books for kids of all ages but is especially interested in acquiring novels where the lyrical meets the fantastical and stories told from strong, driven, vulnerable voices that you feel in your chest, whether that be from laughing, crying, or because you are holding your breath. Hailing from North Carolina, she’s a Southerner at heart and holds degrees in English and Biology from Duke University.
