Maven Literary Management was founded by Amanda Harris in 2025. Her vision is to empower authors with information and confidence, and champion their work across the world.

We help stories and ideas take flight.

We represent award-winning journalists, world-leading academics, thought-leaders, and spellbinding storytellers — voices that challenge, inspire, and leave a lasting impact.

Translation rights are represented by the Rachel Mills Agency, while North American rights are placed through leading US literary agencies or sold directly by the Maven team. We work with Insight Management & Production LLP for Film & TV rights.
