Redwall Wiki | Brian Jacques and Redwall Information

Patricia Lee Gauch, also known as Patti Lee Gauch (January 3, 1934) was the editor-in-chief and vice president of Philomel Books from 1985 - 2009. During her first year, she discovered Redwall by Brian Jacques, and offered him his first U.S. contract.

Gauch would go on to edit 16 novels in the Redwall series. Jacques dedicated Martin the Warrior to her, and named a character in the novel, Gauchee, after her.

Gauch hired illustrator Ian Schoenherr, her former student, who illustrated Jacques' Castaways of the Flying Dutchman. She also showed Jacques the artwork of Christopher Denise, which led him to write The Great Redwall Feast.

Gauch contributed an essay about Jacques to the Redwall: 20th Anniversary Gift Package.
