Hispanic Heritage Month –Diana Calice

Diana Calice is today’s feature on Hispanic Heroes within the publishing industry. Calice, a bilingual Mexican from Michigan, is the Spanish Book Specialist for Independent Publishers Group. Calice actually began her career as a computer operator for Borders Group. Intrigued and fascinated by the Spanish book buyers office, she made it a point to “learn everything I could about books in Spanish, about the publishing world, the Spanish publishing world. I actually went back to school and got my degree and worked my way up and I ultimately did become the Spanish book buyer for Borders.”

Calice’s devotion to her vocation stems from her inherent love of the Spanish language and heritage, “I think I have always been interested in making the public aware of the availability of books in Spanish. I am trying to keep our language alive and trying to promote education to Latino communities through reading. I think it is very important.”
