Antoinette Kuritz firmly believes that whenever a door closes, it is because we are poised to open
another.
A toxic injury in 1991 led her out of the classroom and into a bookstore – where she went in short
order from bookseller to event planner and developed a reputation among authors that soon led
to her becoming a literary publicist. Seeing the changes coming in the publishing industry, she
added book developer to her resume and soon thereafter founded the La Jolla Writers
Conference. Now in its nineteenth year, the conference has been called by Writer’s Digest one of
the 84 conferences in the country worth the money. Simultaneously, she also hosted Writers
Roundtable radio show for eight years, has been the Book Lady on KUSI-TV Good Morning San
Diego for 20 years, and with her business partner, she created Nightstand Press.
