Pagnamenta to Handle Kneerim & Williams U.K. Rights
The Zoë Pagnamenta Agency has been tapped to oversee U.K. & Commonwealth rights sales for authors represented by Boston-based literary agency Kneerim & Williams. Pagnamenta will be selling U.K. rights to Kneerim & Williams projects directly from the U.S. and, in other cases, collaborating with a U.K. subagent.
Kneerim & Williams was founded in 1990 by Jill Kneerim and John Taylor “Ike” Williams; its clients include Stephen Greenblatt, Howard Gardner, and E.O. Wilson. The Zoë Pagnamenta Agency is based in New York but has strong ties to the U.K., as Pagnamenta was raised and educated in England. While the majority of Pagnamenta's clients are American, she represents a number of authors in the U.S. and Canada on behalf of a handful of leading U.K. agencies.
Danny Baror at Baror International will continue to represent Kneerim & Williams’s translation rights.
