October​’​s translator of the month is Paul Russell Garrett, who translates from Norwegian into English. Paul is originally from Canada, but has lived in London for almost twenty years. He took a degree in Scandinavian Studies at UCL, with a focus on Danish, Old Norse, Literature and History. At the University of Copenhagen he delved even deeper into Danish, studying Danish language, linguistics and translation. Paul also has experience teaching Danish at universities, college and privately. He first started translating Danish literature and drama, but soon moved into Norwegian, so far translating Lars Mytting​’​s The Sixteen Trees of the Somme, John Arne Riise​’​s biography, penned by Jens M Johansson, The Running Man, as well as Eirik Vold​’​s biography, Hugo Ch​á​vez: the Bolivarian Revolution from Up Close. Paul has a special place in his heart for theatre and has done a lot of work with drama ​— as a translator and more. His translation of Ibsen​’​s A Doll​’​s House was staged in London​’​s West End in 2012. He​’​s now in charge of the theatre translator mentoring programme for the London-based theatre company, Foreign Affairs.​​
