About me
Pam became a literary agent when she realized her favorite part of the publishing business was working closely with authors and artists, helping them to shape not only their stories, but also their careers. She got her start in publishing as an editor, working for over a decade at Hachette Book Group and went on to serve as the Editorial Director at children’s media startup Rebel Girls before shifting gears.
As an agent, Pam aims to sign authors, not just individual books, and she believes in collaboration, communication, creativity, and mutual respect. She is a graduate of NYU’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study where she crafted her own major combining studies in art history, linguistics, and folklore. This has led to an eclectic list of clients, writing in all categories from children’s and YA, to adult SFF, “weird” fiction, and contemporary rom-com. Pam’s authors love the collaborative process of finessing their projects from idea to finished manuscript with her, and appreciate her tenacious drive to find every book the right home. She brings an inscrutable eye for detail to every story she gets her hands on, and her prior experience at a publishing house gives her insight into how editors think, and what they’re looking for.
