About The Gernert Company
The Gernert Company is a full-service literary agency with offices in New York and Los Angeles. It represents authors across fiction, general nonfiction, practical nonfiction, children's literature, and graphic novels & comics, and it sells domestic, foreign, and subsidiary rights on their behalf, often partnering with co-agents in international markets and the film/TV industry.
As of 2021, the agency expanded its representation to include podcasters, encompassing both writers transitioning into audio and creators native to the podcast medium. This service is aimed at helping podcast creators develop and monetize their intellectual property alongside traditional publishing clients.
Founded in 1996 by David Gernert after he left his role as Editor-in-Chief of Doubleday, the agency now represents several hundred authors and creators. Its client roster includes bestselling authors such as John Grisham, Louise Penny, and Alice McDermott, reflecting a broad range of literary and commercial output.
