Claire Harris

Claire Harris is a literary agent at P.S. Literary agency with a passion for a wide range of fiction and non-fiction for adults. She seeks projects with unique voices, interesting writing styles, compelling characters, and unexplored perspectives. She works with a wide range of authors, from debut novelists to writers with multiple publications under their belts. You can see her clients’ books on a variety of bestseller lists, including The New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and others. When she’s not reading, Claire loves taking long walks, drinking too much iced tea, and exploring parks of all shapes and sizes.

Claire is looking for fiction and nonfiction projects that make people fall in love with reading—through beautiful writing, dynamic characters, and engaging plots. She loves love, the Midwest, and being scared! But she is also looking for a wide range of projects that don’t fit into those categories, so take a look below for more specifics.

In both fiction and nonfiction, Claire is looking for books that shine a spotlight on people, places, and issues not given the attention they deserve—the kinds of stories that are often overlooked or pushed aside. She’s incredibly passionate about getting those stories out into the world. She’s looking for books that promote inclusivity and diversity, and books that start new conversations or add meaningfully to ongoing ones.
