Mark Gottlieb VP and Literary Agent at Trident Media Group, New York NY

I just finished a workshop with Mark and was genuinely impressed with his insight and homework.

Mark Gottlieb is an excellent literary agent. He sold my graphic novel series after just a couple months of working together and was very helpful guiding me through the book deal/contract signing process. He's extremely well informed about the publishing industry, very professional, and dedicated to his work. I appreciate knowing I can always reach out to him if I have a question or concern.

Mark has been a wonderful agent. He will give your work the care it deserves and try to get you the highest offer. He is efficient and has great communication. I could not be more pleased with him selling my debut novel.

We writers can be anxious, emotional creatures, and what first impressed me about Mark Gottlieb is the peaceful composure he brings to such stressful circumstances as having a manuscript out on sub. Mark is refreshingly open-minded and highly aware of the publishing industry's vagaries and trends, and I am thrilled to have him in my corner.

Mark is my agent! He has done so much to help me out, including planning an event for my book launch in his hometown (which went so well). He's also supported me and kept me sane when the going gets tough. Thanks, Mark!

Mark is an excellent literary agent, because he takes the time to really understand what your goals are, and then he puts a plan in action to help you reach your goals. If it weren't for Mark, I wouldn't be publishing the book of my dreams. He is not only a highly effective professional, but he is also a truly kind person. I am very thankful that I've been able to work with him.

M. Gottlieb is proactive, keeps me updated, responds in a timely manner to my messages, and is knowledgeable of the industry. I'm completely satisfied with his representation.

Mark Gottlieb is an outstanding literary agent. He brings fresh ideas and an open mind to the table which is a rare quality. Mark is also a great team player and advisor helping authors, editors, and publishers work together to bring great new content to readers. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for new authors or for authors seeking representation.

I've enjoyed working with Mark, who has already completed two books and two audio deals for me. All have run smoothly. I've worked with Trident Media off and on for many years and have always trusted them to do a good job.

Mark has been phenomenal to work with. He's professional, articulate, and does a great job managing expectations and helping to answer any questions that arise. I give him my highest regard and recommendation!

Mark has made a tremendous impact on my career overall. The guy never stops working to make the pitch the best it can be, and it generally always pays off. He’s a complete professional in every way. I would have no other literary agent handling my career. It’s an honor to be among Trident’s list of talent.

Mark is a very attentive agent with a thorough understanding of the publishing marketplace. He's super-approachable, calm and a great communicator who responds promptly to any questions or concerns directed to him. He also makes it clear he's 100% behind his clients, and will try to find the best home for their work as well as the most favourable deal. I'm grateful to have such an amazing ally in my corner in this tough and often frustrating world of publishing.

I wholeheartedly endorse Mark Gottlieb as an exemplary literary agent. Enterprising and energetic and loaded with initiative, he consistently goes above and beyond for his clients, displaying a loyalty that is unmatched in my experience.

Raised in a publishing family, Mark possesses a deep and extensive understanding of the industry that is invaluable to authors at any stage of their career. Choosing him as a literary agent means securing a dedicated advocate with the knowledge and willingness to champion your work to its fullest potential.

Working with Mark Gottlieb has been a privilege. He's thoughtful, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the publishing industry. He offers wise advice but is always considerate of his client's point of view. In addition, TMG is a full-service agency. I consider myself very fortunate to be repped by Mark and TMG and hope to have a long, successful relationship with both.

Mark sold three of my novels in six months! He's intelligent, insightful, and answers emails faster than anyone I know in the business. I love working with him, and I highly recommend him!

Mark is super active in getting my stories into the hands of publishers and therefore giving them a chance to be in the hands and hearts of children! Mark is really professional and hands on, and always available for advice.
