Chris Salgardo, President of Kiehl's Since 1851 USA, Announces Multi-Book Deal with Crown Publishing Group

NEW YORK, Jan. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Chris Salgardo, skincare expert, philanthropist and celebrated leader of the iconic Kiehl's Since 1851 skincare brand, today announced a multi-book deal with the Crown Publishing Group, a division of Penguin Random House.  

The books – focused on men's skincare, grooming and lifestyle advice – were acquired and will be published by Pam Krauss at her eponymous imprint. An advisor to both Salgardo and Crown brokered the deal privately.

"I am thrilled with this new venture, of course, but even more excited to share the knowledge, inspiration and practical advice I have gained throughout my life and in building such a beloved brand," said Salgardo, president of Kiehl's Since 1851. "These books will be shaped by my passion for the adventure, discovery, independence and know-how that define modern men, and by information they can trust to get the most out of life at any age, in any situation."

The first of the books will come to market as part of Pam Krauss Books' Spring 2016 list. "We are enthused by Chris's vision, and expect the books to be strongly appealing to men of all ages, who are taking care of themselves in ways previous generations could not have imagined," said Pam Krauss, senior vice president at Crown. 

Rob Imig, Kiehl's senior vice president, global communications, said, "Chris's books will be a fundamental part of the Kiehl's story in the years to come. Our retail managers and partners are incredibly excited to incorporate his powerful perspective and advice into their relationships with consumers."
