Translation and International Rights
The International Rights team is dedicated to representing authors in translation. We provide bespoke strategies that focus on our client’s specific priorities and goals. Our driving ambition is to access a diverse global audience and amplify the reach of our authors around the world.
WME’s unique resources help our authors be at the forefront of cultural intersections and the global exchange of information, experience, and art. We work directly in the major markets throughout the world.
Additionally, the international team proudly represents a number of bestselling non-English language authors and we’re always on the search for new literary talent.
