Lily (joy1) | 189 comments I want to find the author link for Elizabeth Taylor, literary editor at the Chicago Tribune and chair of the jury for fiction for the Pulitzer prize. Help, please?


message 2: by Aakash (new)

Aakash (mistyanon) You can find her by entering an isbn of one of her book if any. It's easy way to do it.

Or directly search in the search box

Or search in some search engines like Google. Write goodreads after name of that person.

No idea if all those books are hers, but that's the author profile that matches.

Edit: Apparently only one co-write is hers.

Tried all but your third tip before I came here, Aakash! Will remember it. (Well, actually I used book name instead of ISBN, but found it only under the name of co-author. Hadn't found a second book with her as author at that point.)

here you go."


Thanks! It looked to me as if Abc... (or you?) probably cleaned up her profile! Kinda nice, given her role on the Pulitzer Committee. (She's still rather hard to find, though. Those duplicate names are troublesome.)

Aakash (mistyanon) Okay we will add the data that is relative to her. (currently I am on app sm1 will do that if not then I'll myself in the morning. )

Thanks for information.
