We’re thrilled to welcome two new leaders to the Decatur Book Festival!

✨ Meet Anna Dobben, our new Literary Director. With experience spanning the San Antonio Book Festival, the National Book Foundation, and major publishing houses, Anna brings a deep understanding of literary programming and a personal connection to DBF as a graduate of Emory University. We’re also excited to introduce Heidi Hill, our new Assistant Director. An editor, consultant, and writer with more than two decades in independent publishing, Heidi has long been part of the DBF community as an attendee, volunteer, and moderator. Please join us in giving Anna and Heidi a warm welcome! 💛📚
