Malcolm Margolin

Malcolm Margolin (born October 27, 1940) is an author, publisher, and former executive director of Heyday Books, an independent nonprofit publisher and cultural institution in Berkeley, California. From his founding of Heyday in 1974 until his retirement at the end of 2015, he oversaw the publication of several hundred books and the creation of two quarterly magazines: ''News from Native California,'' devoted to the history and ongoing cultural concerns of California Indians, and ''Bay Nature,'' devoted to the natural history of the San Francisco Bay Area. In the fall of 2017, he established a new enterprise, the California Institute for Community, Art, and Nature (California ICAN) to continue and expand upon the work that he began more than forty years ago.

Margolin is the author/editor of several books including ''The Ohlone Way: Indian Life in the San Francisco-Monterey Bay Area'', named by the ''San Francisco Chronicle'' as one of the hundred most important books of the twentieth century by a western writer. His essays and articles have appeared in a number of periodicals including ''The Nation,'' the ''San Francisco Chronicle'', and the ''Los Angeles Times''. Provided by Wikipedia
