Amy Thrall Flynn
Amy Thrall Flynn has 25 years of experience in children’s book publishing. She started her career as an editor at the former Houghton Mifflin Books for Children in Boston. Among the dozens of talented creators she had the honor and pleasure of working with are Sy Montgomery and Nic Bishop, whose The Snake Scientist launched the long-running acclaimed “Scientists in the Field'' series; award-winning nonfiction picture book author-illustrator Don Brown; artist James Rumford; storyteller Alice McGill; and Olivier Dunrea and his beloved “Gossie & Friends'' series.
As an agent, she represents writers and illustrators of fiction and nonfiction for children, from picture books to young adult novels. She is thrilled to work with a growing list of clients including Julien Chung, Ritu Hemnani, Ellen Surrey, Carter Higgins, Wendell Minor, Heather Montgomery, Rob Sanders, Dan Paley, Robyn McGrath, Jennifer Richter, Tommy Greenwald, Charlie Greenwald, Dana VanderLugt, and Nadine Pinede.
Amy graduated from Middlebury College with a major in American Literature and a minor in Spanish. She holds an M.A. in English and an additional M.A. in Children’s Literature from Simmons University. She has a passion for the collaborative editorial process and is drawn to beautifully written and compelling stories and topics, with an underlying guiding belief in the power of books to connect, inspire, and affirm the lives of young people.
