Short biography: Nicolette Hoekmeijer (1962) vertaalde vele romans uit het Engels, waaronder werk van Toni Morrison, Justin Torres, Nathan Englander, Edward St. Aubyn, en, samen met Molly van Gelder, John Irving. Hoekmeijer is tevens docente aan de VertalersVakschool in Amsterdam en verzorgt regelmatig vertaalateliers voor de Master Literair Vertalen (Universiteit Utrecht). Daarnaast is ze een van de drijvende krachten achter de Vertalersgeluktournee die dit voorjaar voor de derde keer is georganiseerd. Op uitnodiging van Banff en het Letterenfonds verbleef ze in juni in het Banff International Literary Translation Centre in Canada om daar met Nathaniel Rich te werken aan de vertaling van zijn tweede roman, Odds Against Tomorrow, die in het najaar van 2013 bij Ambo/Anthos zal verschijnen.
