Founded in 1974, The Aaron M. Priest Literary Agency is one of the most prestigious and successful boutique literary agencies in New York.
For over 50 years, we’ve championed writers, celebrating creativity and original ideas that cannot be replicated or replaced by AI. Our agents are continually searching for innovative, non-AI generated work that meets these standards to add to our already impressive list of clients.
Commercial, literary, and bookclub fiction; thrillers, suspense, and romance; and narrative non-fiction are all represented on our shelves. We are proud to maintain our reputation as a full-service, hands on agency representing a select group of authors.
Highly respected by writers, editors and publishers alike, the Aaron Priest Literary Agency has earned its superior reputation through its commitment to talented authors and the successful management of their careers.
