Hire the best biographies and memoirs book cover designers


Picture those most iconic of biographies and memoirs — Walter Isaacson’s biography of Steve Jobs, with its Apple-aesthetic-inspired cover. Michelle Obama’s Becoming, with its beaming optimism. Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking, with its spare and minimal cover.


These works are classics because of the stories they tell, but their cover designs are also important in sustaining their reputation, and serve as a way to get readers to trust in the books and buy them. There’s a reason authors and publishers hire biography and memoir book cover designers, as these specialists can evoke the gravity and seriousness of the genre, and combine it with a visual freshness and interest that attracts readers.


Here at Reedsy, you too can hire a biography or memoir book cover designer to cloak your book in the right clothes. You’ll be working with a highly experienced professional to come up with the perfect design for your personal story. Sign up to Reedsy today to meet the right designer for you.
