Therese von Hohoff Torrey ("Tay Hohoff") (July 3, 1898 — January 5, 1974) was an American literary editor with the publishing firm J. B. Lippincott & Co. Strong-willed and forceful, she worked closely with author Harper Lee over the course of nearly three years to give final shape to her classic novel To Kill A Mockingbird. After the commercial and literary success of the novel, she shielded Harper Lee from the intense pressure to write another one. She retired from a senior editorial position at the firm in 1973 and died the following year.

—Tay Hohoff in a six-and-a-half-page typewritten letter to Edward Burlingame, executive editor of Lippincott

"She was closely attentive and tough, but I never felt manhandled by her."

"Hohoff was a terrific editor. She would go through the manuscript and jot down little questions in the margins. From those questions, you would start questioning your own work."

"I suffer from some sort of mother-complex, so that I always want to make paths smooth for the people I am fond of and of whom I have a high opinion."
