Peter Rubie, President & CEO

Picture
​
​Peter Rubie specializes in a broad range of high-quality fiction and non-fiction. In non-fiction, he specializes in narrative non-fiction, popular science, spirituality, history, biography, pop culture, business and technology, parenting, health, self-help, music, and food. He is a “sucker” for outstanding writing. In fiction, he represents literate thrillers, crime fiction, science fiction and fantasy, military fiction and literary fiction, middle grade, and some boy-oriented young adult fiction.

Rubie is a former BBC Radio and Fleet Street journalist and, for several years, was the director of the publishing section of the New York University Summer Publishing Institute. He was a member of the NYU faculty for 10 years and taught the only university-level course in the country on how to become a literary agent.

Before becoming an agent he was a publishing house editor for nearly six years, whose authors won prizes and critical acclaim. He has also been the editor-in-chief of a Manhattan local newspaper, and a freelance editor and book doctor for major publishers. He was a regular reviewer for the international trade magazine Publishers Weekly and is a published author of
both fiction and non-fiction. He is a member of AALA, and regularly lectures and writes on publishing and the craft of writing. He is the author of two published novels and nearly ten non-fiction books ranging in subject matter from publishing and writing to music and Shakespeare. One thing about Peter that is not well known is that he was once a professional jazz musician and, from time to time, can still be found playing in various jazz venues around New York City and London.
