Dara Kaye [SOLD OUT OF PITCH APPOINTMENTS] is a literary agent with William Morris Endeavor.

Dara has been at WME since 2023. She represents adult nonfiction that tells great stories—from serious history and memoir to pop science and parenting—along with select speculative fiction. Her clients include NYT bestsellers and winners of awards from the Locus to PEN America, Fulbright, and NEH fellowships.

Across genres, she is drawn to projects with potential for international success and books that make the familiar world feel new and surprising. In nonfiction, she especially loves working with academics, journalists, and other experts with a knack for communicating original research to mainstream audiences, and with memoirists whose unique perspective stays with readers long after the last page.

Before joining WME, Dara was an agent and foreign rights director at the Ross Yoon Agency and spent two years in South Korea on a Fulbright fellowship. A graduate of Smith College (BA) and University College London (MA), she lives in Washington, DC, with her husband and children.
