W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and
Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of
New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by
celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing pro-
gram—trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control
of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, col-
lege, and professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and oldest pub-
lishing house owned wholly by its employees.
