Translation & Revision
Precision on the page.
Gregory provides French-English translation with particular expertise in legal, international relations, insurance, business, and institutional materials. His background in law and international affairs gives him a strong understanding of the terminology, context, and conventions these fields require.
At the same time, his decades as an actor, filmmaker, and writer make him especially well suited to translating and revising creative and screen-related material, where tone, voice, rhythm, and intent matter as much as literal accuracy.
Revision
Gregory also provides revision of French and English texts, reviewing language, terminology, consistency, tone, and meaning to ensure the finished product reads naturally and accurately in its intended context.

Expertise
Language with context.
Gregory’s approach to language is shaped by a career that extends well beyond translation and interpreting. He studied political science and international relations
at Boston University, studied law at the Sorbonne, worked in a Washington, D.C. Congressional office and at major law firms, and has spent decades working
in the performing arts.
That background gives him a particular familiarity with the language of law, international relations, business, insurance, government, economics, and the arts,
and an understanding of how meaning changes with context, audience, and purpose.
