Lori Galvin An agent with Aevitas Creative Management (see other agents at this agency). About Since 2015, Lori has built a list at Aevitas of exceptional, bestselling storytellers whose work has been featured widely in national media, translated around the world, and optioned for film and television. Drawing on decades of publishing experience including her years as an editor at Houghton Mifflin, her clients include Wanda M. Morris, Nishita Parekh, and James BeardAward–winning chef Kwame Onwuachi, and many have been recognized by the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, Lilly’s Library, the Good Morning America Book Club, the NAACP Image Awards for Literature, IACP Cookbook Awards, NPR’s Best Books of the Year, the Mark Twain Voice in American Literature Prize, the New York Times Best Mysteries of the Year, the International Thriller Writers Awards, and the Crime Writer Association’s Ian Fleming Steel Dagger.Lori specializes in upmarket fiction including mystery, suspense, and psychologically layered narratives with strong commercial potential, and is always on the hunt for select cookbooks and literary memoir.Born and raised in Massachusetts, she credits her love of dark stories and food writing to her years as an editor at America's Test Kitchen's where culinary crimes were approached and solved like procedural thrillers, and to her time running a bed and breakfast in New England, both of which could have been the basis of binge-worthy Netflix series.

Never pay an agent an up-front fee. That is not how literary agent representation works. Agents earn a commission only after they've landed a publishing deal for you. Also, agents scarcely ever contact writers. If an agent that you haven't queried contacts you about representation, be suspicious. Look up the agent and check if the email address is correct for that agent/agency.
