Bringing their roster of clients, they will be based at Innovative’ Los Angeles office. They join agents Jim Stein, Michael Pio, Joe Arciniega, Susan Sussman, Emily Cameron, and Ethan More in Innovative’s literary department.
“It was a rare opportunity to find an existing team of agents who not only share a history of collaboration and teamwork, but whose work ethos and culture mesh perfectly with our company’s philosophy and aspirations. We are thrilled to be able to welcome them to Innovative,” said agency President Scott Harris.
