Diana is an accomplished translator with a deep passion for bringing literary masterpieces to new audiences. Specializing in Romanian and English, she has worked on some of the most significant works of Romanian literature.
Her translations include The Scintillating Life of Iulia Hasdeu by Constantin Manolache, a captivating biography of the late prodigy Iulia Hasdeu, for which Diana also translated Iulia’s romantic poetry. She has also brought to English-speaking readers Pirin Planina by George Topîrceanu, a harrowing yet humorously written memoir of World War I, and A Description of Moldavia by Dimitrie Cantemir, a cornerstone of Romanian historiography.

Her background in investigative journalism and her passion for history and literature allow her to approach each translation with a deep understanding of both language and context.
