Diana Press Publications

Diana Press Publications was an American feminist publishing house. Founded and established in January 1972 by Coletta Reid and Casey Czarnik, the company was primarily run by a diverse collective of women. [1] It was commercially successful and published radical and feminist literature.[2] Some of their publications included works by Rita Mae Brown, Judy Grahn, and Jeannette Foster.[3] The company was based in Baltimore, Maryland until it relocated to Oakland, California in 1977. Diana Press closed down in 1979.[4]
