Russian term or phrase: Ответственный за выпуск книги директор издательства
I'm looking for a good way of rendering this position title into English for the front matter of a book to be published.
So far, I've come up with "General Director of Book Publication," but this doesn't include the aspect of the title that indicates that this is also the person who runs the publishing house.
