From Texas to Oklahoma, "Plain Interpreting"!

We hear stories of how the Sign Language Interpreting profession evolved from the 1970s to today. My guest Joni Bice retells the struggles, the details of working conditions, education, testing, and human interactions from her lived experiences. She recalls experiences from her first introduction to the Deaf community and its language to becoming the first Department Head of the interpreting program in Oklahoma City.

It's great to learn about history from those who lived it. Learn with me from this episode to the next parts of our conversation in the coming weeks.
