Director of Corporate Communications
Savannah Wexford - Langley
Savannah Wexford-Langley is Communications Director at Langley & Co, which means she controls all external messaging, including this bio. And darling, she's writing it exactly as she likes. Born into publishing royalty, she turned insider advantage into strategic genius. Publishing pedigree? Check. Killer instinct for what sells? Absolutely.
From red-carpet launches to award-season domination, Savannah doesn't just manage campaigns, she creates cultural moments. Her Rolodex reads like a who's who of media, entertainment, and literary power players. When Langley & Co sweeps the awards (again), you'll find Savannah at the table everyone wants to be at.
Image isn't everything at Langley & Co. It's the only thing. And nobody does it better than Savvi..
Director of Publicity
Bella Fairchild (nee Langley)

With a strong instinct for storytelling beyond the page, she works on select projects that connect the Langley list to wider conversations in media, the arts, and social impact. Thoughtful, globally minded, and quietly influential, Bella brings a distinctive perspective to the Langley portfolio - helping ensure the company’s legacy is matched by its relevance.
