Franklin & Siegal Associates appointed literary scouts for Orion

Orion Publishing Group has appointed Franklin & Siegal Associates as its literary scouts. 

Franklin & Siegal has long-standing, ongoing partnerships with a number of Hachette UK divisions, including Hodder & Stoughton, John Murray Press and Quercus.

Anna Valentine, m.d. of Orion, said: “Franklin & Siegal Associates’ excellent reputation goes before them. They are the perfect partner to help support our continued growth, and we look forward to collaborating on many future bestsellers together.”

Danny Yanez, vice-president and partner of Franklin & Siegal Associates, said: “I have long admired Orion’s dynamic lists and the care and energy with which they bring them to life and to the market. It will be an honour to play a part in Orion’s ongoing growth, alongside the esteemed publishing teams led by Oliver Malcolm, Nick Davies and Jon Butler.”

Todd R Siegal said: “I looked back in our files and found our original scouting agreement with Hodder dates back to 1982. We are as proud of our longstanding relationships with our legacy clients as we are excited about starting new alliances, such as that with Orion, as we forge ahead together into the future.”
