Elizabeth Day Signs With UTA and Curtis Brown

Award-winning author and broadcaster Elizabeth Day has signed with UTA and Curtis Brown, where she will be represented across publishing, factual entertainment, media rights, creators, TV and film. Together, the agencies will support Day — who has penned five novels and four non-fiction books — as she expands her global profile and continues to build a career spanning literature, broadcasting and digital platforms.

Day’s most recent novel “One of Us” was named a Sunday Times bestseller, and will be published in North America in February with Viking, as part of a two-book deal brokered by UTA Publishing. ITV has also just commissioned a five-part series adaptation of her book “The Party,” starring Luke Evans and Tom Cullen, which she will executive produce. Her last non-fiction work, “Friendaholic: Confessions of a Friendship Addict,” hit No. 1 on the Sunday Times bestseller list and has been translated into several languages.

Alongside her work as an author, Day has written for publications including The Times, The Guardian, Vogue, Elle and Vanity Fair, and is the creator and host of the popular podcast “How to Fail With Elizabeth Day.” On “How to Fail,” which has reached over 60 million downloads, Day has interviewed guests including Kate Winslet, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Salman Rushdie, Stanley Tucci, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Monica Lewinsky, Jon Bon Jovi and Malala. She is also committed to elevating female and diverse voices in podcasting and media through her company Daylight Productions.

In addition to working with UTA and Curtis Brown, Day will continue to be represented globally by the Fane Group for brand deals, corporate events and live touring. To date, her tours have sold out major venues across the U.K. and Australia including the London Palladium, the National Theatre, the Barbican, the Southbank Centre and the Sydney Opera House.
