About

Maureen Walters began working at Curtis Brown as assistant to Perry H. Knowlton, then President of the company, and went on some years later to represent the agency’s entire list of clients for translation rights. In 1981 she began developing her own list of clients working primarily in women’s fiction and nonfiction projects on subjects as eclectic as parenting & child care, popular psychology, inspirational/motivational volumes as well as a few medical/nutritional books. In addition she represents a handful of children’s book writers, one of whom is a two-time Newbery Notable Book Award winner for juvenile fiction.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the agent or agency being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the agent/agency meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the agency/agent.
  • Unless the agency's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For agency submissions, it is standard to submit a query letter and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
