Archway Editions
Archway Editions was a publisher based in Brooklyn, New York. It was founded in 2019 by Chris Molnar and Nic Nicoludis, and run with senior editor Naomi Falk as the literary imprint of powerHouse Books, distributed by Simon & Schuster.
History
Archway Editions was created to publish "more off-beat, hard-to-market work — like Ishmael Reed's The Haunting of Lin-Manuel Miranda", as described in Brooklyn Magazine. Their books were excerpted or covered in BOMB, Bookforum, The New York Review of Books, The Paris Review, The New Yorker, and more. In 2024, The New York Times wrote that Molly "is in its fourth printing and has become an unexpected hit for Archway Editions, its small Brooklyn-based publisher". In September 2025, the staff posted a letter online announcing that the entire staff stepped down, including Molnar, Nicoludis, Falk, and publicist Mia Risher.
