Hi, I'm Janna!

I help children's book and kids comics authors and artists build their careers.

I started my own career in children’s book publishing in the art department at Scholastic. Within a few years I moved to the editorial department and helped co-found the Graphix imprint.

After working with authors like Raina Telgemeier, Jeff Smith, and Kazu Kibuishi, I left Scholastic to launch the Kids Group at Diamond Book Distributors. There, I worked with a wide range of independent comics publishers.

Then I stepped away from publishing to help my husband build his photography business. I learned everything I could about running an arts-based small business.

Now I've put all those experiences together, and represent a fabulous collection of authors, artists, graphic novelists, visual storytellers, and production studios.

I'm also the founder of Kids Comics Unite, a thriving community for kids and YA graphic novelists and industry professionals. It's free! Join us.
