Sophie Sheumaker is the Global Rights assistant and literary assistant to Naomi Davis at the BookEnds Literary Agency. She studied writing, literature, and publishing at Emerson College, graduating in the spring of 2023 and has recently begun building her list of authors and illustrators. She can be found at the library checking out more books than she could ever possibly read, crocheting like it’s a full-time job, or taking her anxiety-ridden dog for a walk through the streets of Boston. She is a firm believer that everyone should read children’s books, walnuts should never be in banana bread, and the 2005 Pride and Prejudice is better than the BBC version.
