Okay, let’s tackle this. So Maria Angelini has experience as a Managing Editor at Orbis Books, which is a publishing company. The rate for editors in the publishing industry can vary widely depending on factors like location, experience, and company size. In the New York area, editors with similar experience might average around $40–$60 per hour. Considering Maria’s experience and role, I’ll estimate her hourly rate to be on the lower end of that range, around $45 per hour.
