I have been translating documents from Russian to English, and occasionally from French or German to English, for many years and have numerous published and unpublished translations, which are listed below. With a B.A. (with honors) in Russian and a Ph.D. in English, I have experienced the world of scholarship and publishing and am willing to take on translation projects.

SAMPLE TRANSLATION
FROM RUSSIAN TO ENGLISH by Joan Wagner Teller
Russian original:
Феликс достал из
рюкзака полотенце и пошел. И дальше вдоль дороги стояли такие же бедные, как
будто заброшенные дома. Но люди там жили: из окон выглядывали лица, и дети выбегали
из калиток--взглянуть на незнакомца. Один только дом выделился
неожиданно--высокий, двухэтажный, с новой железной крышей, покрашенной в
зеленую краску; с резными голубыми наличниками на окнах. Первый этаж был из
новенького яркокрасного кирпича; второй--из свежих бревен. От этого дома и
пахло смолой и свежестью, а не как от остальных--плесенью и гнилью.
Телевизионная антена--выше дома--была вкопана в землю возле него. Феликс
удивленно качнул головой.
--from Последняя возможность ("A Last Chance") by Romen Yarov, in Музыка для усталых любовников - Рассказы (MUSIC FOR TIRED LOVERS - STORIES), New York: Effect
Publishing, Inc., 1985, page 42.
Translation into English by Joan Teller:
Felix took a towel from the knapsack and started walking.
Farther down the road stood poor houses just like the rest, looking as if they
had been abandoned. But people were living there: faces were peeping from the
windows, and children were running through the wicket gates--to get a glimpse
of the stranger. One house alone stood out unexpectedly--a tall two-story one
with a new iron roof that had been painted green, with fretted light-blue
casings around its windows. The first story was made of brand-new bright red
brick, the second of fresh beams. This house smelled of resin and freshness,
unlike the others, which smelled of mildew and mold. A television
antenna--taller than the house--had been planted in the ground nearby. Felix
shook his head in amazement.
