Press Release
De Gruyter Expands US Editorial Team
New hires in Linguistics and Political Science aid De Gruyter’s North
American growth strategy

[Boston / Berlin, June 27, 2023] De Gruyter, a leading international
academic publisher, is pleased to announce the addition of two new
members to its editorial team in the United States. Meredith Keffer
has been appointed as Senior Acquisitions Editor for De Gruyter’s
Linguistics imprint Mouton, while Ze'ev Sudry has joined as
Acquisitions Editor for Political Science.

Meredith Keffer brings a wealth of editorial experience and commitment
in the field of linguistics to her new role as Senior Acquisitions
Editor for Mouton. Keffer comes to Mouton with 10 years of experience
in academic, trade, and higher education publishing at Oxford
University Press. Most recently she served as a linguistics editor and
worked with leading scholars to expand engagement with diversity and
inclusion in the field. Keffer’s proven dedication to linguistics,
coupled with her extensive industry knowledge, will enable her to grow
the Mouton presence in North America.

Ze'ev Sudry’s appointment as Acquisitions Editor for Political Science
is another significant addition to De Gruyter's editorial team. Sudry,
who has a decade of experience in academic publishing and
international relations, previously worked on the politics list at
Routledge/Taylor & Francis. Sudry will be responsible for acquiring
scholarly books that explore various aspects of political science,
including international relations, American government, and related
areas. His knowledge will contribute significantly to expanding and
shaping the academic discourse of De Gruyter's social sciences
program.

The appointment of Meredith Keffer and Ze’ev Sudry to the company’s
Boston office aligns with De Gruyter’s growth and expansion strategy
in North America. By appointing Keffer and Sudry to these new roles,
the company will enhance its support for authors in the United States
and Canada, while delivering outstanding publications in the
humanities, social sciences, and science, technology and mathematics
specifically tailored for North American audiences.

“We are thrilled to welcome Meredith Keffer and Ze'ev Sudry to our
editorial team," said Manuela Gerlof, Vice President for Humanities
and Social Sciences Publishing at De Gruyter. “Their skills and
demonstrated work ethic within their respective fields will be
instrumental in expanding our programs in linguistics and political
science within the US and beyond. We are confident that their
contributions will greatly benefit our authors, readers, and the
academic community at large.”
