HarperOne Group has inked a partnership with JVL Media, a new publisher and packager launched earlier this year by EGOT-winning actress Viola Davis, her husband and producing partner Julius Tennon, and Houston-based publisher Lavaille Lavette.
HarperOne’s Amistad imprint will serve as a publishing partner for three of JVL Media’s inaugural titles, which are slated for 2025. Two of JVL Media’s previously announced titles—Had to Lose to Win: The Tiki Davis Story by Tiki Davis and The Inclusion Leader by Johné Battle—will be published in association with Amistad, as well as the newly announced Call & Response: 10 Leadership Lessons from the Black Church by L. Michelle Smith. The partnership does not currently extend to the two fiction titles on JVL Media’s inaugural list.
