After working for six years at the prestigious New York literary agency
Sanford J. Greenburger Associates, Julie Barer started her own agency,
Barer Literary, in 2004.
Julie represents a wide range of fiction writers who publish across the literary spectrum. She also represents a variety of nonfiction clients whose specialties include biography, memoir, narrative nonfiction, history, and popular culture.
When accepting new clients for representation, Julie is especially interested in working with emerging writers and developing long term relationships. Her list is extremely selective, which enables her to offer her clients the attention and support services they deserve. Julie remains consistently engaged with each aspect of the publishing process, from editing and selling the project to negotiating publicity and generating foreign sales.
Julie attended the Jerusalem Book Fair as an Agent Fellow in 2003 and she is a member of the Association of Authors' Representatives. Before becoming an agent, Julie worked at Shakespeare & Co. Booksellers in New York City. She is a graduate of Vassar College.
