HarperCollinsPublishers, part of News Corporation, is one of the largest and most successful publishing groups in the world.
HarperCollins Australia was founded in 1989 with the amalgamation of three publishing houses: Harper and Row (USA), William Collins (UK) and Angus & Robertson Publishers (Australia). This union of strong global publishers with Australia's oldest and foremost literary publisher resulted in a uniquely powerful company, with the literary heritage of Angus & Robertson augmented by the international reach of News Corporation.
HarperCollins' strength in the Australian market is spearheaded by a strong local publishing list spanning adult fiction and non-fiction as well as children's and illustrated books. The key imprints are HarperCollins, ABC Books, Angus & Robertson, HarperSports, Fourth Estate, Harper Perennial, Collins and Voyager.
