With a background in journalism, American Albert Curtis Brown established in London in 1899 one of the first literary agencies, the International Publishing Bureau, and by 1905 was operating under his own name. In 1914 Brown set up a New York branch. The firm became, and remains, one of the most prominent agencies, its clients including numerous well-known writers. William Brockman
