From humble beginnings as an Army translator serving in Egypt, or working as an interpreter in Iraq, Marat experienced the varied intersections of culture, language, and ideology. His professional journey led him to various editor positions, at publishing houses in Russia. As institutions in the Evil Empire began to crumble, he worked as an independent theater producer and independent publisher, bringing new perspectives and ideologies to those living behind the iron curtain. It is this environment which lead to the journey captured within Red Odyssey. Enamored with the ideological and physical freedoms then enjoyed within the United States of America, Marat left his prosperous life as a “New Russian” in Moscow to begin anew in California. Building from scratch, as a translator he soon realized technology would dominate the future of linguistics. After studying the basics of computer science at a community college and taking courses in natural language processing at a University, he found work developing linguistic computer applications. Finally, Marat founded his own company to realize and evolve the role of technology in linguistics, employing hundreds of linguists and engineers. Marat has written four other books that have been published in various countries. In his free time, he enjoys tennis, shooting sports and robotics. He was a foil fencing champion of Uzbekistan and the Commonwealth of Virginia.ver menos
