Our dear friend, Esmond Harmsworth, who was a dedicated literary agent to many in our community and a generous supporter of writers at large, died suddenly of natural causes a few weeks ago while on vacation with his husband and children. Those of us who were lucky enough to count him as a friend and professional colleague are still reeling from the shock of losing him. We talk a lot about the importance of being a good literary citizen at GrubStreet, and Esmond lived those values.
