Kate entered the publishing industry via in-house foreign rights in a literary agency, moving on to academic editorial and landing in hugely commercial non-fiction agenting for the past nine years. As an agent, she worked predominantly with talent-led and celebrity memoirs, autobiographies and biographies, as well as a broad spectrum of music, history and sport titles, and was instrumental in the success of some of the biggest non-fiction bestsellers of the last few years. Bringing out the true essence and emotion of someone’s story is her bread and butter, and she’s passionate about honest, resonating storytelling. In her free time, Kate loves theatre, travel, snow sports and sampling London’s ever-growing restaurant selection.
