About CAA Books

Representing the best in books.

CAA Books provides unparalleled representation in publishing, film, and television, representing best-in-class writers across genres. We work with novelists, journalists, celebrities, thought leaders, and emerging voices to inform, entertain and enrich readers of all ages. With offices in New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., and London, CAA Books works globally to ensure our clients' work reaches audiences around the world.

Our U.S. and UK primary agents sell books to commercial trade publishers in the U.S., UK, Australia, and throughout the English-speaking world. More than 100 of our books appear on the New York Times and Sunday Times bestsellers lists every year. Our clients include myriad Nobel, Pulitzer, Booker, and Baillie Gifford Prize, and National Book Award winners.

Our Translation Rights team works with an extensive network of publishers, scouts, and select co-agents across the globe to bring our authors' work to international audiences. Selling rights in more than 60 languages, from Azerbaijani to Ukrainian, our clients' books have topped bestseller charts around the world and received such international honors as the Prix Goncourt, the Hans Christian Andersen Award, and many more.

Our Intellectual Property Adaptation Rights team connects our clients' work with key buyers across the global film, television, podcast, and theater industries to create world-class adaptations. Whether it's a short story providing the basis for a limited series, a non-fiction book becoming a documentary, or a bestselling novel being brought to life on the big screen, we have sold Academy and Emmy Award-winning content that will be a part of the cultural landscape for years to come.

CAA also provides promotional services for clients, including marketing, publicity, and touring support. We work closely with our publishing partners to create cohesive, innovative, and strategic book campaigns and industry-leading book events that elevate our clients' connections with their fans while supporting local bookstores.
