    A podcast interview with Vicki Willden-Lebrecht
    The Children’s Book Review

    In this episode of The Growing Readers Podcast, Vicki Willden-Lebrecht, founder and CEO of Bright Agency—an agency set up to do more than represent artists and authors—talks all about agenting.

    Beginning with children’s publishing, Vicki founded Bright in 2003 and nurtured it into a thriving international creative management agency around the globe. The artists and clients of Bright work across Publishing, Illustration, Greetings & Gifts, Film and TV, and Licensing—giving the work they create more commercial potential and providing artists more opportunities.

    Vicki is a born entrepreneur with an exceptional talent for generating new business and riding the cutting edge of opportunity. Her original thinking, dynamic leadership, and life-long dedication to artist care are the bedrock of Bright’s exceptional commercial and creative success.
