Literary Agent Jody Kahn (née Jody Klein) of Brandt and Hochman Literary Seeks New Clients

I'm not considering this a true New Agent Alert because agent Jody Klein (of Brandt and Hochman Literary Agents, Inc.) is not brand new. That said, this post resembles an Alert in that Jody did tell me recently how she is actively looking to build her client list right now -- and that is something writers should be happy to know. All details below for those interested in querying her! She is seeking: Jody is actively acquiring literary and commercial fiction, crime/suspense, historical fiction, graphic novels/memoirs, and magical realism, as well as narrative nonfiction (especially related to sports, science, or history), and prescriptive nonfiction.
