She served as an editor on Molteni Mondo: An Italian Design Story (Rizzoli), an upcoming monograph celebrating the seminal Italian design company’s 90-year history, and is currently an editor on a multi-volume book series in collaboration with The Leading Hotels of the World and Monacelli Press. Emily is also a copy editor at the Brooklyn–based proofreading company Super Copy Editors and freelances in both copy editing and writing.
