Dictionaries are rarely written by one person. Usually there is an editorial team. The editors may also change over the years.

In addition, the Cambridge University Press publish a variety of different types of dictionaries, with different teams of editors. e.g.

# Managing Editor: Elizabeth Walter # Senior Commissioning Editor: Patrick Gillard Cambridge Learner's Dictionary 2007

# Managing Editor: Kate Woodford # Senior Commissioning Editor: Elizabeth Walter # Editorial Contributors: Melissa Good, Lucy Hollingworth, Kerry Maxwell, and Duncan O'Connor

Specialist dictionaries require specialist editors. For example the Cambridge Dictionary of American English, (Second Edition) was written and edited in the US by native speakers of American English.
