Katharine Trowbridge (known professionally as Katharine T. Carroll), US Publicity Director for Titan Publishing Group, died Sunday, June 28. She was 68.
Trowbridge, who worked with Titan Publishing Group across Titan Books, Titan Comics, and Hard Case Crime for nearly two decades, was a force of nature at the helm of the company’s publicity in the US, bringing a career of media expertise to her work across a changing landscape, while championing authors with support and guidance. She was dearly beloved by her colleagues within Titan and around the world.
Trowbridge began her publicity career with Time Inc. in 1980, spending a decade working across campaigns with Time, Life, People, Entertainment Weekly and more, before launching her own publicity consultation company – KTCommunications – in 1990, where she worked with a range of magazines, authors, and publishing companies.
She began working with Titan Publishing as the US Publicity Director in 2008 and was instrumental to the company’s significant growth and presence throughout the US over the last 18 years, working closely with the Hard Case Crime imprint after it was acquired in 2011. She was the native New Yorker heart of Titan Entertainment’s New York Comic Con booth over the years and brought her warm, lively personality to interactions with countless fans and readers.
In recent years, Trowbridge spearheaded new investments in touring authors around the US and was fundamental in connecting US journalists and booksellers with key Titan successes such as Dreadful by Caitlin Rozakis – Titan’s first-ever US original fiction title to hit the New York Times bestseller list.
We are devastated by the loss of Katharine. She had the warmest of personalities and cared deeply for all her authors as well as her colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic. She glowed whenever she discussed any aspect of publishing and had a phenomenal knowledge of all facets of publishing. Her contribution to Titan enabled us to grow far faster in the US than we ever thought possible. We will miss her dearly.
-Titan Entertainment Group co-owners Nick Landau and Vivian Cheung
Katharine was an absolute delight. A consummate professional, she coupled charm and grace with an infectious sense of humour. She will be missed terribly.
-Titan Books Editorial Director Laura Price
Trowbridge is survived by her three children, Sarah, Emily, and James Carroll; her two grandchildren, Madelyn and Rowan Moore; her mother, Marty Trowbridge; and her two siblings, Stephen and Mary Trowbridge.
Our thoughts go out to her family, friends, and coworkers.

Black Star is the debut comic from acclaimed actress Kristin Kreuk, co-written with Peter Mooney and screenwriter Eric Putzer, and illustrated by artist Joe Bocardo. Issue #1 also features a fantastic cover by the Eisner award nominated Martin Simmonds!
Amidst skirmishes between two warring factions in the early nineteenth-century fur trade, Dashiell Carlyle discovers he has magical abilities… and that he’s not alone.
Thrust into a secret order with designs to use their magic to build a new and better world, Dashiell discovers that their utopia may come at a horrific cost.
It’s a violent world: gritty, bloody, and dark. But that’s balanced with a sense of discovery and awe. The storytelling’s propulsive, and the morality grey.
A Northern Gothic Noir twinged with horror and dark humour, It’s a love letter to a frozen corner of the world that few know. It’s weird. And wonderful. And something wholly its own.
