Description
Books, their writers, and their agents tell the story of Sanford. J. Greenburger Associates. Its prestigious reputation, built representing such icons as Kafka and Sartre, provides the foundation for the dynamic and independent spirit of the agency today. With over two dozen New York Times bestsellers in two decades, SJGA provides representation to contemporary authors including Nelson DeMille, Nicholas Sparks, and Dan Brown.
SJGA was founded in 1932 by Sanford J. Greenburger, who specialized in representing European writers and publishers in the U.S., as well as internationally. He pioneered the editorial scouting business, advising European publishers which American writers to translate and publish.
The current era for SJGA began with the vision of Francis Greenburger, Sanford's son, when he assumed management of the agency after his father's death in 1971. The agency was converted into an agents' collaborative, which included SJGA agents and affiliated agents such as Nicholas Ellison, Inc. and the late Diane Cleaver.
