Plitt named a Rising Star

Posted on 24/07/2018

We are delighted that agent Carrie Plitt has been selected by The Bookseller as an industry Rising Star.

The Bookseller pointed to Carrie’s success championing ‘thoughtful non-fiction’, ranging from Reni Eddo-Lodge’s bestselling, prize-winning Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race (itself the Bookseller‘s Non-Fiction Book of the Year), to BBC reporter David Robson’s forthcoming The Intelligence Trap.

Each year The Bookseller identifies and celebrates a select group of publishing professionals who show particular promise and talent. Needless to say, everyone here at Felicity Bryan Associates is thrilled for Carrie and not surprised. Congratulations, Carrie!
