Whitney Leopard (she/her) is the Executive Editor at RH Graphic and Ink Pop, where she acquires and edits graphic novels for kids and teens. She is also a frequent speaker at college comic programs and comic conventions all around the country. If she is home then she is most likely enjoying naptime with her cats, Eleanor and Jude.

Since helping launch RH Graphic in 2020, she has worked on a variety of titles for children and teens such as: Trung Le Nguyen’s The Magic Fish, Sophie Escabasse’s Witches of Brooklyn series, and the Stonewall Award winning graphic novel Halfway to Somewhere by Jose Pimienta. From translations to adaptations, Whitney has had the joy of bringing fan-favorite stories to life in graphic novel form, including the New York Times bestselling graphic novel series; Francine Pascal’s Sweet Valley Twins. And with Ink Pop, which launched in 2025, she has worked on bringing over manga, manhwa, and webtoons to kids and teens.

Her last name is really Leopard, like the cat.
