Jessica Spitz

An agent with Janklow & Nesbit Associates (see other agents at this agency).

Jessica represents fiction across the literary and commercial spectrum, journalistic nonfiction, and select pop culture and criticism. On the fiction side, she is drawn to intimate narratives that examine complicated relationships – whether romantic, familial, or platonic – and are imbued with empathy and humor. She is also looking for great love stories, immersive fantasy worlds, and propulsive plots grounded by unforgettable characters. In terms of nonfiction, she is looking for fresh, thoroughly-reported stories on racial history and justice, women’s health and reproductive rights, and mental health.
Jessica began her publishing career at William Morris Endeavor, where she spent four years before joining Janklow & Nesbit as a literary agent in 2023. She grew up in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, and has lived in New York City since moving there to attend Columbia University.
