Dani Leshgold, Literary Assistant

Dani joined Sterling Lord Literistic, Inc. in 2024 and works with Sarah Landis and Robert Guinsler. Dani is drawn to stories that look at the mundane under the light, revealing something beautiful, unsettling, or urgent. She loves literary fiction that keeps her up at night, grounded fantasy that uncovers real emotion and truths, and books that sweep her off her feet with their atmosphere. Dani is also interested in essay collections that explore identity, place, or relationships, be that with another person, oneself, or the world around them. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Dani now enjoys watching the seasons change from her window in Brooklyn.
