Cardoza Publishing
In 1981, Cardoza gave up professional blackjack card counting and founded Cardoza Publishing, the largest gaming book publisher in the world. Its clients have included many well-known figures in the world of gambling, including Doyle Brunson, Daniel Negreanu, T.J. Cloutier, Mike Caro, Tom McEvoy, Mike Matusow and Arnold Snyder.
The Cardoza library, distributed around the world and translated into more than a dozen languages, includes over 200 gaming titles. More than ten million Cardoza books have been sold including bestsellers’ Doyle Brunson’s Super System and Super System 2 (New York Times Extended Bestseller, March 2005, #1 Amazon worldwide). Cardoza’s other book publishing company, Open Road Publishing (worldwide travel guides) and imprint Cold Spring Press (fantasy/science fiction), started in 1993 with a partner, has published more than 100 titles including an Amazon top-30 seller. Cardoza is also the author of The Complete Guide to Successful Publishing, which the Publishers Marketing Association called "the most comprehensive guide on publishing...maybe ever."
Cardoza is a five-time Gold and Platinum award-winning designer (48th annual awards, National Paperbox Association) and has designed hundreds of packaging concepts for books, multimedia software, magazines, brochures, and direct mailers, and through his former company, The Discount Guide, which operated out of offices in five Northern Californian cities, was the architect for mail order campaigns that not only have brought widespread success to his own companies, but kept many others in business.

Famous quotes containing the word publishing:
“While you continue to grow fatter and richer publishing your nauseating confectionery, I shall become a mole, digging here, rooting there, stirring up the whole rotten mess where life is hard, raw and ugly.”
—Norman Reilly Raine (1895–1971)
