Curated and hosted by WV Poet Laureate, Marc Harshman, this year’s panel will feature the works of authors who have also worked as translators: Randi Ward [Icelandic, Faeroese, Norwegian, Danish, German, & others] and Jeremy Paden [Spanish]. 

Marc will also share a few of his children’s books that have been translated into several languages. Each will read selections from one or more of their translations, share their experiences in translating works, and engage in audience Q&A.

This project is being presented with financial assistance from the West Virginia Humanities Council, a state affiliate for the National Endowment for the Humanities.
