Catherine Pellegrino joined Rogers, Coleridge & White in February 2007. She did Hispanic studies at Manchester University and then went straight into publishing, working for Victor Gollancz Ltd., Puffin and Bloomsbury in Foreign Rights. After a very brief sojourn in the South West of France, she returned to London where she worked as a reader for Literary Scout Virginia Marx before becoming one herself, first at Liz Van Lear Ltd and then briefly in her own right. She represents children’s and young adult writers and her client list includes Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams (Tunnels published by Chicken House), Pearl Morrison (The Wind Tamer and The Wave Traveller both published by Bloomsbury) and Ceci Jenkinson whose series Oli and Skipjack’s Tales of Trouble will be launching in July 2008 with The Mum Shop.
