About / Bio
Born in Switzerland, Anne Malena came to Canada as a very young adult and raised a family in Hamilton, Ontario before returning to university in 1984. She translated The Prowler (La maraude) by Kristjana Gunnars for her Masters' thesis and subsequently published it with Leméac (1995), followed three years later by Degré Zéro (Ground Zero), Gunnars' second novel. She obtained her PhD in Caribbean Literature from Cornell University (1996) and is currently Professor of French and Translation Studies at the University of Alberta (Edmonton). Every year, she organizes a one-day conference on International Translation Day and she now also translates into English.
