History

The Stuart Krichevsky Literary Agency represented fourteen New York Times bestsellers in its thirteen years in business, including THE PERFECT STORM by Sebastian Junger; DIE BROKE by Stephen M. Pollan and Mark Levine; THE HUNGRY OCEAN by Linda Greenlaw; MAYFLOWER (a Pulitzer Prize Finalist) and IN THE HEART OF THE SEA (Winner of the National Book Award for Non-fiction) by Nathaniel Philbrick; DEEP DISH by Mary Kay Andrews; and PHYSICS OF THE IMPOSSIBLE by Michio Kaku.

Our clients have been the recipients of major literary and journalism awards, including the National Book Award, the National Magazine Award, the Governor General’s Literary Award, the George M. Polk Award, the Livingston Award, the Michael Kelly Award and the Pulitzer Prize.

Stuart Krichevsky, who founded the agency in 1995, has over twenty-five years experience in the agency business. He began his career in the mail room (literally) at The Sterling Lord Agency (now Sterling Lord Literistic) and was with that company for fifteen years before entrepreneurial interests led him to start his own agency.
