About Us

Curtis Brown is passionate about nurturing the careers of our writers, helping their work find an audience and reach its full potential. Our clients benefit from our decades of experience, and the pooled wisdom of our agents, here and overseas. We aim to exploit all possible sources of income for our clients and are in constant communication with publishing houses, newspapers and magazines, film producers, theatre companies, television companies and merchandising businesses.

We are proud to represent writers of fiction and non-fiction, children’s writers, illustrators, and playwrights.

We have offices in Sydney and Melbourne and we maintain close links to the Curtis Brown London office and affiliated agencies in New York, enabling us to offer our clients opportunities to sell English-language and translation rights worldwide.
