Mara Hollander is a literary agent with FinePrint Literary Management. She joined FinePrint in 2023 and became an associate agent in 2024. She earned a bachelorÕs degree at GeorgetownUniversity (Hoya Saxa!) and a PhD at Pitt Public Health. SheÕs lived in Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and now Charlotte, but calls DC and NYC home. In her free time, she writes fantasy novels, watches a shocking amount of figure skating, roots for the Washington Nationals, and daydreams about petting dogs.

Stories make us who we are, and everyone deserves a chance to write their own narrative. Mara is actively seeking to represent authors from communities traditionally underrepresented in publishing, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA, people who are disabled, and people who are chronically ill.

In fiction, Mara is seeking accessibly-written genre novels for Adult and YA audiences that rip your heart out and make you forget the world around you. In particular, sheÕs looking to represent fantasy (including political and romantic/romantasy), light sci-fi, romance, thrillers/mysteries (including political), and womenÕs fiction. She is not the best fit for literary fiction, historical fiction (historical romance is okay), or work written for middle graders or younger audiences. Mara is also interested in narrative nonfiction for adult audiences about mental illness and/or substance use disorders and the American health care system.
