Robert Duane Loomis was an American book editor who worked at Random House from 1957 until his retirement in 2011. He has been called "one of publishing's hall of fame editors." Many of Loomis's authors had worked with him for decades, including Maya Angelou, who wrote 31 books under his editorship, beginning with her first autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (1969). His authors' loyalty to him, and his to them, was almost legendary. Loomis represented "the classic mold of the editor"
