Linda Holliday

The depth of Linda’s technology expertise is matched only by her desire to see it used to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number. After earning her undergraduate degree in painting at the University of Michigan, Linda split off from the trail of most aspiring artists to head to Wharton, where she earned her MBA. That left brain/right brain ambidexterity has been a hallmark of her career: Her first startup, Medical Broadcasting Company, an early entrant into the digital marketing space, was sold in 2006 to Digitas, where it was rebranded Digitas Health; Semi-Linear’s focus on serious nonfiction books is an expression of Linda’s commitment to creativity, big ideas, and the importance of using digital media to spread those ideas more widely. She lives in New York City with her husband.
