Holy Cow! Press
| Company or organization: | Holy Cow! Press Duluth, Minnesota |
| Description: | Holy Cow! Press publishes literary works of writers primarily in the Upper Midwest. Owner Jim Perlman's vision and careful selection of titles has, over the past 32 years, led to Holy Cow! being called "one of the best small presses in America." Nineteen of Holy Cow! Press' books have been finalists for the Northeast Minnesota Book Award; three of the poetry titles received the top award. |
| Potential Internship Activities: | In 2005, UMD English M.A. candidate Rachel Lintula completed an internship in publishing at Holy Cow! Press. Ms. Lintula's responsibilities included preliminary reading of submitted manuscripts as well as preparation of potential responses to submitters. She met regularly with owner Jim Perlman to discuss the submittals. |
