Wilson Media is a full-service literary agency specializing in adult nonfiction. It was established in 2001 by Robert Wilson to represent authors and their works to traditional book publishers, filmmakers, theatrical producers, audio-book and e-book publishers, foreign-language publishers, and other producers of original content. A former professional athlete, he had previously worked as a music critic, political reporter, travel writer, trade book editor and editorial director.
Of particular interest to the agency are works related to sports, American history, biography, memoir, religion/faith, politics, current affairs, and pop culture. Many titles represented by the agency have achieved bestseller status, most notably Bill Madden's STEINBRENNER, a New York Times nonfiction hardcover bestseller for 12 consecutive weeks.
Clients represented by the agency have included one of the greatest sports writers of the 20th century, Roger Kahn; Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Sydney Schanberg; and the distinguished American historian, David Pietrusza. Through the years the agency has built up a reputation for its representation of former athletes. These athletes/authors include Don Zimmer, Bobby Murcer, Bill Rodgers, Raymond Berry, Davey Johnson, Bud Harrelson, Mookie Wilson, Joanne McCallie, Dave Parker, Ila Borders, Art Shamsky, Dwight Evans, Steve Blass, Felipe Alou, Ron Blomberg, Sam McDowell, Glenn Burke, Roscoe Tanner and Tim McCarver.
Author news and recent developments are posted regularly on Twitter: @WilsonMediaLit.
