For 2017, I'm starting a new thread with updates on where to meet agents, editors and art directors at conferences. I'll try to remember to post the updates here each week, but if I don't, you can always find them on my website.
Agents: http://vonnacarter.com/wordpress/agent-appearances/
Editors & Art Directors:http://vonnacarter.com/wordpress/appearances-editors/

NESCBWI has announced their faculty, and it is too huge to mention here. I've got them broken down by agents and editors on my site, or you can check out the whole enchilada on their site: https://newengland.scbwi.org/events/nescbwi-annual-spring-conference/

Other updates this week include agents Jordy Albert, of the Booker Albert Literary Agency, Victoria A. Selvaggio of Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency, Joanna MacKenzie ofNelson Literary Agency, Ammi-Joan Paquette of Erin Murphy Literary Agency, Ruben Pfeffer of Ruben Pfeffer Content LLC, and Kaylee Davis of Dee Mura Literary.
