LORI GALVIN

A dark haired woman with glasses.

Lori Galvin represents both adult fiction (especially domestic suspense, psychological thrillers, and mysteries) and nonfiction (memoir, food writing, and cookbooks). A few of Galvin’s clients include Wanda M. Morris (All Her Little Secrets, Anywhere You Run, What You Leave Behind, William Morrow) and Jennifer Morita’s forthcoming debut Ghosts of Waikiki (Crooked Lane). On the culinary side, her clients include James Beard–award winners, Kwame Onwuachi (Notes from a Young Black Chef, My America Knopf) and Margaret Li and Irene Li (Perfectly Good Food, Norton). Galvin’s clients’ projects have been optioned by A24, Netflix, and CBS Studios.

Prior to joining Aevitas, Galvin was executive editor at the multimedia publisher America’s Test Kitchen, where she led a team that produced dozens of landmark cookbooks. Galvin was also an editor at Houghton Mifflin, a restaurant cook, and ran a bed-and-breakfast in Maine.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

Crime—including domestic suspense, psychological thrillers, and literary mysteries—as well as thrillers that cross over into horror. Big-hearted novels that move and/or inspire the reader—ripe for book club discussion. Food writing including cookbooks, or memoir by writers with deep expertise and strong prose.
