Julia Kenny

About the Agent

Julia Kenny began her career in publishing as an intern at the Wendy Weil Agency, while studying creative writing at Sarah Lawrence College. For nearly 10 years, she worked as the director of foreign rights and as an agent at the Markson Thomas Literary Agency. She primarily works on fiction and has a soft spot for dark, literary suspense. She is on the lookout for writing that immediately draws her in, bold voices, "unlikeable" narrators, and stories that linger. (Please note, she very rarely takes on YA or MG.) She grew up on an island and lives with her family in Brooklyn.
