In November 1999, the 40th ATA Conference in St. Louis, Missouri, was the venue for a fascinating session entitled "Translators and the Media: A Public Forum to Examine the Image of Translation and Translators in the Popular Media." It featured former White House Press Secretary Dee Dee Myers and translation industry luminaries including Kevin Hendzel, Chris Durban, Janet Fraser, Manouche Ragsdale and Neil Inglis. The purpose of this event was to assess how translators and interpreters are portrayed in the media; how this relates to how we are perceived by society in general; and what we, as translators, interpreters and language industry professionals, can do about it.
