Who Is Stephen King’s Literary Agent?

Stephen King sold his first short story in 1967. Throughout the early years after college he sold stories to men’s magazines. Many of these were later gathered into the Night Shift collection. In 1971, Stephen began teaching high school English classes. Writing in the evenings and on the weekends, he continued to produce short stories and to work on novels.

In 1973, Doubleday accepted the novel Carrie for publication. A short time later Stephen learned that a major paperback sale would provide him with the means to leave teaching and write full-time. That same year Stephen wrote The Shining.

The Kings have three children: Naomi Rachel, Joe Hill, and Owen Phillip. Stephen is of Scots-Irish ancestry, stands 6’4″ and weighs about 200 pounds. He sometimes wears a beard between the end of the World Series and the opening of baseball spring training in Florida. He has worn glasses since he was a child. Stephen and his wife Tabitha provide scholarships for local students and contribute to many charities.
