About The Gernert Company

The Gernert Company is a full-service literary agency with offices in New York and Los Angeles. Our client list is as broad as the market: we represent fiction, both literary and commercial, for a wide range of readers; general nonfiction, including history, politics, journalism, science, technology, business, memoir, and more; practical nonfiction including health & wellness, lifestyle, cooking, and design; children's literature from early to young adult readers; graphic novels & comics. As of 2021, we also represent podcasters, both writers moving into the space and creators native to it. We sell domestic, foreign, and subsidiary rights for our clients, frequently partnering with co-agents in a wide range of international markets as well as in the film/TV industry. The Gernert Company was founded in 1996 by David Gernert after he left his post as Editor-in-Chief of Doubleday to become an agent. The agency currently represents more than 500 authors.
