Daniel Kulp is the Editorial Director for all the journals of the American Physical Society (APS).  He has been with APS, working in the Editorial Office, for over 17 years and has recently been elected a Fellow of the Society.  During this time he has been involved in all aspects of publishing including peer-review, production, distribution, and personnel and financial management of journals. He is also part of the APS Strategic Management team which helps guide the Society. With 50 full-time professional editors and 60 part-time remote Associate and Senior Editors reporting to him, Dan has become adept at "herding cats" and reaching consensus across the journals. He has also developed into the in-house expert on copyright and licensing issues, and has been at the forefront of APS's efforts in open access publishing.  He has made presentations on copyright and open access licensing in numerous venues including SSP, the 2012 Neurology Journals retreat, and most recently represented APS at the EPS Roundtable on open access.  Dan is active in STM through his participation in both Copyright and Legal Affairs and Public Affairs committees, and he co-organized the 2013 Spring STM meeting.
