Autorenporträt
Former BBC Radio and Fleet Street journalist Peter Rubie has been an editor and then a literary agent since 1986. He has also been a member of the New York University publishing faculty, where for 10 years he taught the only university-level course in the country on how to become a literary agent. For several years he was also the director of the book publishing section of the NYU Summer Publishing Institute. Before that, in the U.K., he worked on Fleet Street before becoming one of the youngest news editors for BBC Radio News, and at 23, also worked for the fledgling BBC Radio London as a deputy news editor. In the U.S. he was the editor-in-chief of a Manhattan local newspaper, and later a regular reviewer for the international trade magazine Publishers Weekly. A member of the Association of Authors Representative (AAR), he regularly lectures and writes on publishing and the craft of writing. In addition to his work with FinePrint, he is the publisher of a small press, Lincoln Square Books, and is himself a published author of both fiction and nonfiction. What many people do not know about Peter is that he is also an active professional jazz musician, and writes a regular blog column on AllAboutJazz.com, called The Jazz Life. On any given week, he can be heard late in the evening and weekends playing guitar around jazz venues in New York City - and occasionally in London and elsewhere.
