Ginger
Knowlton represents authors and illustrators of children's books
in all genres, as well as a few adult book authors. Her list includes
Newbery Medalists, Newbery Honor and Printz Honor winners, Edgar
and Lambda winners, a Sibert and Orbis Pictus winner, New York
Times bestsellers, and a host of other delightful and talented
clients. Ginger started working at Curtis Brown as an assistant
to Marilyn Marlow, one of the first literary agents to specialize
in children's books in the 1960s. Working for Marilyn was a rite
of passage, affectionately referred to as Curtis Brown’s "Boot
Camp." Before joining the company, Ginger worked in the field
of early childhood education in Sacramento and Mendocino, California.
She has served on the Board of Directors of the Association of
Authors' Representatives and currently serves on the Board of Directors
of the Friends of the Library in her hometown in Westchester County.
