Baker Publishing Group is pleased to announce that it has hired Henry L. Carrigan Jr. as Senior Acquisitions Editor for Baker Academic and Brazos Press. Henry has served in editorial/acquisitions leadership positions since 1999 at Northwestern University Press, T&T Clark/Continuum, and Trinity Press International.

He has also taught at the college and seminary level at Garrett Evangelical Theological Seminary, Otterbein College, Ohio Dominican College, and Elizabethtown College.

Jim Kinney, executive vice president, academic publishing said, “We are quite pleased to add an editor of Henry’s experience and stature to our staff. Having admired his work from afar for many years, we are now privileged to work side by side with him to expand our publishing program and diversify our author base.”

Baker Academic serves the academy and the church by publishing works that further the pursuit of knowledge and understanding within the context of Christian faith. Building on our Reformed and evangelical heritage, we connect authors and readers across the broader academic community by publishing books that reflect historic Christianity and its contemporary expressions. Our authors are scholars who are leaders in their fields, write irenically, and display a healthy respect for other perspectives and traditions. Our goal is to publish books that are notable for their inherent quality and deemed essential reading by students and scholars.

Brazos Press fosters the renewal of classical, orthodox Christianity by publishing thoughtful, theologically grounded books on subjects of importance to the church and the world. We serve authors and readers from all major streams of the historic Christian tradition, recognizing that the renewal of Christian orthodoxy transcends many traditional boundary lines and polarities.
