Brandt & Hochman Literary Agents BIO

Brandt & Hochman literary agents Gail Hochman and Bill Contardi have an all-star roster of award-winning authors of both fiction and nonfiction.

Gail Hochman first landed an entry-level position in publishing at G.P. Putnam’s Sons in 1975, when it was still a privately held company. As a young editorial assistant, she worked in the magazines department working closely with well-known authors to sell their short stories and book excerpts to The New Yorker and The Atlantic Monthly. In a career spanning more than 30 years, Gail Hochman has come a long way since editing her classmates’ college papers and becoming an “accidental” agent. Gail Hochman is the president of Brandt & Hochman, and long-time president of the AAR (Association of Authors’ Representatives).
