Jean v. Naggar Literary Agency, Inc.

jean naggar established her eponymous literary agency in 1978 with no staff, no capital, and ten previously unpublished authors. what she did have was unwavering commitment and dedication to her authors' careers and the tenacity to fight for their success on all fronts possible. as this singular philosophy proved its worth, jean's one-woman agency expanded. in 2004, jean decided to partner with jennifer weltz, who had joined the agency in 1994. they incorporated as the jean v. naggar literary agency, inc., or jvnla, inc. some 30+ years later, the agency numbers many more. each agent represents an independent list of authors that reflects her individual styles, tastes, and strengths, with all collaborating as a team to orchestrate the agency's contracts, subsidiary rights, publicity, and editorial development. jvnla is an agency that has never identified with the ordinary. our list includes award-winning writers from every genre. our books have been published in over 50 countries; showc
