Audio publisher Sarah Shrubb founded the list in 2003. Audio editor Louise Harvey is currently on parental leave and Charlotte Brown is covering. However Jessica Callaghan was recently promoted to the full-time role of audio assistant editor.
The team recently expanded to a team of three full-time roles, as the audio assistant used to be a shared role with rights. Books have been voiced by the likes of Tom Hollander, Adjoa Andoh, Robert Glenister, Jeremy Irons, Juliet Stevenson, Benedict Cumberbatch and Sir Tom Courtenay. In non-fiction, audiobooks published by the imprint include Malcolm Gladwell’s The Tipping Point, Deep Work by Cal Newport, and Walter Isaacson’s Steve Jobs, which became Little, Brown’s first audiobook to pass the 100,000-download milestone in 2016. This includes the British Book Award-shortlisted Cormoran Strike series by Robert Galbraith – all six titles of which have each sold over 100,000 downloads according to the publisher – as well as Hachette’s biggest fiction audiobook, Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. It publishes about 400 audiobooks per year. The imprint began publishing audiobooks 20 years ago and now has a list of nearly 3,500 titles.
Little, Brown Book Group is rebranding its audiobook imprint, Hachette Audio, to Little, Brown Audio with immediate effect.
