Ted Weinstein Literary Management is a leading U.S. literary agency 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 journalism and narrative nonfiction, popular science, business and personal finance, biography and history, current affairs and politics, health and fitness, food and cooking, entertainment and pop culture (often based on popular Web sites or blogs), and quirky reference books. (We do NOT represent fiction, stage plays, screenplays, poetry, or books for children or young adults.)

We invite you to explore our site, which includes information about the agency, recent deals, our clients' recent books, agency news, submissions guidelines, 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.
