Bio
Karinya Funsett-Topping is originally from Maumee, Ohio, but moved to Tucson to attend the University of Arizona. She graduated magna cum laude with a BA in Creative Writing in 2005 and an MFA in Creative Nonfiction in May of 2008. She was the 2007-2008 nonfiction editor for The Sonora Review. As an undergrad, she worked as an arts writer and book critic for the top-rated Arizona Daily Wildcat newspaper and served as the editor-in-chief for the school’s undergraduate literary magazine, Persona. Karinya joined The Editorial Department in June 2006 as the Submissions Director. She manages the agent matchmaking program under the guidance of Ross Browne. She loves reading the great work produced by the TED authors and editors, and enjoys the challenge of finding the right literary agent for each manuscript in the program. When reading for pleasure, she turns to southern authors like Flannery O’Connor, Eudora Welty, Carson McCullers, and Truman Capote. Interested in working with Karinya?

TED Client Testimonials
"What can I say about Renni Browne that hasn't been said? She's a wonder, has an hysterical sense of humor and she gets it. She gets the pain of a writer trying to find the words, changes everything for the better with one red line and though tough in her critique sometimes, does so with a true desire to develop something good into something great. She has my respect admiration, and my friendship for life." Jacqueline Gum, author of Confessions of a Corporate Slut Ft. Lauderdale, FL |
