Tim McCall

COO

A legend in publishing (yes, modesty is our strong suit), Tim has nearly 30 years of senior management expertise (notice the black and white photo?), with deep knowledge in sales, distribution, global market development, digital product distribution, and supply chain management. Oh yeah!

The lovely soul that is Tim has led teams for global publishers, including Penguin, Penguin Random House and LSC Communications; not to mention has been an industry leader in the evolution of digital content in book publishing, establishing new business models in trade, education, and library markets. (More modesty in action.)

Real story: The first time our CEO Michelle Glorieux called Tim to introduce herself and her recently incorporated startup (not even sure the website was up yet), Tim said, we quote, “I don’t have time participate, but I’m intrigued, so please tell me more.” That persistence, friends, resulted in an hour or so a month of advising.

But if anyone knows Michelle, they know perseverance is her strong suit, and suffice it to say, Tim became part of the family, with regular zoom calls from New York to the Glorieux family in Europe. At the time Tim was Vice President and Associate Publisher for Melville House, a leading independent publisher with offices in the US and the UK.

In 2023 Tim came on as Michelle’s full-time, right-hand man/COO, committed and poised to take TA-DA! to the next level of impact - and history-making.

Oh - Tim speaks a bit of French and reads the universal language of music. (If he had TA-DA! as a child, we’re pretty sure there would be a different quantifier to the former!)
