She's got a $ on PE. Website http://www.miriamaltshulerliteraryagency.com/ lacks detail (nothing on sales). Anyone know anything about her?
You need to search B&BC to determine if there is already a thread on a particular agent or publisher before starting a new one.
Thread is here.

I searched her in Publishers Marketplace which is well worth the price of a subscription if you can.Dragon-lady, where did you find her list of clients? Her profile at AgentQuery only lists seven sales from 1996 to 2005. I know that's probably just a few examples, but does she have any recent sales?
I noticed that her website states, "Any material sent should be single sided, double-spaced, and in twelve font." As it specifically says "any material," does that mean that she wants the query letter double-spaced?

Yeah, I think it's great. I understand that not every sale ends up in their database but a huge percentage seems to. I look everyone up there.I just signed up at PM. There's good stuff on there.
