Our new faculty member, Dr. Ozum Arzik Erzurumlu will deliver a talk for AIIC USA on Saturday, October 05, 2024. The talk is entitled Interpreting as Emotional Labor: Exploring the Social Carpet of Conference and Broadcast Interpreting. 

Drawing on research and personal experience interpreting speeches by US Presidents, such as Joe Biden and Donald Trump, for several broadcasting institutions, Ozum Arzık-Erzurumlu will illustrate how interpreters develop attachments to the speakers and situations they interpret. She will also discuss interpreters' challenges when dealing with traumatic news and events, such as the Ukrainian-Russian war, and the resources available to them.
