Title: Article: Demand Grows for Niche Translators
Body: From http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-trash-girl16-2009nov16,0,5579934.story Demand grows for niche translators By Tina Susman November 16, 2009 Abigail Dahlberg realized she was a success a few years ago while explaining her unusual specialty -- translating documents about waste- management issues from German into English -- to a wide-eyed listener. In the burgeoning world of translators and interpreters (translators deal with written documents, interpreters with the spoken word) it's all about the niche. "It's not just having the language skill. It's also having the expertise in the subject matter," said Dahlberg, whose story was striking enough that Nicholas Hartmann, president of the American Translators Assn., retold it during the group's 50th convention in New York last month.
