Erica Spellman-Silverman

At 23 years old, Erica Spellman Silverman began her career at ICM.

After transitioning to the film side of the business, Erica found that she missed working with novelists and moved to The William Morris Agency (now William Morris Endeavor), where she became Vice President.

Having worked at ICM and William Morris, she made a transition to running United Artists in New York so she could see the other side of the fence.

Erica has been at Trident for ten years.

Her client list is fairly eclectic.

Her interest lies less in genre than in great storytelling—Erica says, “anything that gets into your head and your heart, anything you can’t stop thinking about, whether it’s literary fiction, thrillers, young adult, or memoir.

Books and stories that touch the soul, that make you laugh or cry or both.

Stories that haven’t been told before or are told in a different way: that’s what I am looking for.
