#UpcomingDaylight #LiteraryPeachy U.S. Book Show Announces New Date, Venue for 2025 Publishing Conference - Save the Date for the Fifth Annual #USBOOKSHOW -

The U.S. Book Show kicks off its 2025 daylong conference on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, in a new location, the New York Academy of Medicine, an historic Fifth Avenue building located on Museum Mile and overlooking Central Park.

Now in its fifth year, the U.S. Book Show: A Conference on Publishing and the Business of Books is presented by Publishers Weekly and features keynote addresses from industry luminaries, a panoply of expert panels that range from AI to career paths to the shape of the industry’s future, and priceless networking opportunities. The conference brings together publishing professionals from all sectors, C-suite to students, and culminates in what has become the pièce de résistance, the closing cocktail party.

“This year’s program is a masterstroke of creativity and purpose,” says Krista Rafanello, the show’s manager and Publishers Weekly senior marketing director. “From book bans to book clubs, social media to the science of reading, TikTok to Trump, the 2025 U.S. Book Show offers publishing professionals new concepts, camaraderie and a reinvigorated passion that comes from our shared love of books.”

Speakers and panelists are to be announced in the coming weeks as topics are finalized. See the schedule and detailed panel descriptions here.

This is an in-person show, with no livestreaming. Early bird discounts are available through the U.S. Book Show website, good through April 30, 2025. Space is limited. Group rates are available.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
