For this episode, Speaking of Translation was refashioned to “Speaking of Interpreting” as we traveled across the aisle to discuss interpreting with two of the most dynamic people in the business: InterpretAmerica Co-Presidents Katharine Allen and Barry Slaughter Olsen.
They shared their take on the current state of interpreting in the US, what lies ahead, advances in remote interpreting, what a new interpreter needs to do to succeed in the business, and more.
They had truly insightful observations on interpreting today and into the future.
