PFD Announce New Foreign Rights Agent

globe_stand.jpgThe Peters Fraser and Dunlop Group Limited have appointed Jessica Craig as foreign rights agent for adult books to work from their London offices in Covent Garden.   She will be selling rights in translation worldwide on behalf of PFD London and will start on February 5th. Jessica was most recently Associate Rights Director at Canongate Books and prior to that worked in her native America at the agency Burnes and Clegg and for the scouts Franklin and Siegel.

Simon Trewin of PFD said ‘We are delighted to welcome Jessica Craig to the agency. She will be joining a thriving Books department which has just had a record year. With Jessica’s assistance overseas we will build on this success in the years ahead. She will be joined shortly by a second foreign rights agent who will specialise in children’s books - an area that is becoming increasingly important to us.’
