Selleck will retire at the end of the year. He has been with
the company since 1984. CEO Carolyn Reidy said in a statement, "Simply
put, there are very few people within Simon & Schuster who possess
Michael's institutional memory and intimate working knowledge of our publishing
history, our systems, operational infrastructure, and business practices and put
them to such good use on a daily basis. And there are likewise few with his
charisma, good sense and infectious enthusiasm.... Michael has, over the years,
helped build the Simon & Schuster culture we enjoy and most assuredly
represents the best of it."
