, 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 program—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 five hundred and hundreds of trade, college,
and professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and
oldest publishing house owned wholly by its employees.
