Biography
Melissa Nasson is a literary agent with Rubin Pfeffer Content, LLC. She has spent her life living in and around Boston, attending college at Boston University (Go Terriers!).

After taking the bar exam in 2012, Melissa worked as a foreign rights intern at Perseus Books Group before starting as contracts director at Beacon Press. Now, she continues her work at Beacon Press while actively building her list as an associate agent at Rubin Pfeffer Content. Melissa loves dogs, craft beer, making pickles, tending to her tiny vegetable garden, and her pet tortoise, Norton.
