Ted Weinstein is a leading U.S. literary agent and a member of the Association of Authors' Representatives (AAR), working with a wide range of authors of adult nonfiction.

The agency's clients include journalists, academics, enthusiasts and other expert authors. We offer a full-service approach to working with our clients, helping them identify and take advantage of the full range of opportunities - across many different media - that their insights and talents can bring them. With our deep expertise in all aspects of the publishing process and our extensive network of subsidiary rights agents overseas and in Hollywood, we help talented authors build long term careers.

We are particularly interested in representing authors of narrative nonfiction, popular science, biography and history, current affairs and politics, contemporary culture, business, sports, food and cooking, health and medicine, entertainment, and quirky reference books. Please note we do not represent fiction, screenplays, short stories, poetry, or books for children or young adults.

We invite you to explore our site, which includes information about the agency, our clients, submissions guidelines, recent agency news, and other resources to help you understand and succeed in the publishing business. We're looking forward to learning more about you and your work.
