Ariel Curry currently serves as Sr. Editor for nonfiction at Sourcebooks. Prior to that, she collaborated with authors on nonfiction book proposals and manuscripts for traditional publishers (including the Big 5), and served as an acquisitions editor at Corwin Press for nearly 9 years. She specializes in developing commercially successful prescriptive nonfiction and memoirs. As an editor, she enjoys brainstorming and outlining new book ideas, bringing clarity and purpose to prose, and helping authors build their self-efficacy. She has collaborated with bestselling authors such as Jeff Goins, TED speaker Sugata Mitra, New York Times columnist Warren Berger, supermodel Genevieve Morton, and TV producer Matt Williams.

When she’s not working on books, you can find Ariel doing yoga, playing piano, beekeeping, or reading with a cup of coffee. She lives in Chattanooga, TN, with her husband, foster kids, and rescue dogs, Enyo and Tenaya.
