Jesse
Finkelstein and Trena White of Page
Two Strategic Publishing have joined Transatlantic Literary agency as
associate agents and like all new agents, they need authors.
Jesse
Finkelstein specializes in
upmarket, accessible non-fiction that challenges current conceptions, whether
through a “big ideas” book or narrative. "I am drawn to entrepreneurs and people
who are innovators in their fields and writing about current affairs, business,
culture, politics, technology, religion, and the environment," says Jesse. "I am most
interested in authors who have an existing platform."

Attach
a (maximum) 20-page writing sample/excerpt as a Microsoft Word document, along
with a publishing history and synopsis. Please note if other agents are also
considering the project. Due to the volume of submissions received, replies
will be sent only for submissions being actively considered.
