Seal Press was founded in 1976 and stands as one of the most enduring feminist publishing houses to emerge from the women’s press movement of the 1970s. Seal publishes radical and groundbreaking books that inspire and challenge readers, that humanize urgent issues, that build much-needed bridges in divisive times, and help us see the world in a new light.

From humble beginnings—a letterpress in a Seattle garage and grassroots fundraising—Seal Press has grown to become an award-winning publishing house, expanding to their current offices in Berkeley, Boston, and New York. In 2016, Seal Press joined Hachette Book Group, one of the largest publishers in the US and a division of the third largest trade and educational publisher in the world, Hachette Livre.
