Female Bible Translators
The following are some recent English Bible translations that have had women, as well as men, as translators.
The New International Version (NIV 2011) translation committee, which consists of only 15 people, includes Jeannine Brown, plus Karen Jobes as secretary. (I’m pretty sure Karen did much more than take dictation and sharpen pencils. I love her commentary on 1 Peter.) http://www.niv-cbt.org/translators/
The New Revised Standard Version (NRSV, 1989) translation committee includes Phyllis Bird, J. Cheryl Exum and Katharine Sakenfeld. http://www.nrsv.net/about/faqs/
The New Living Translation (NLT, 2007), which I have major problems with, has Marianne Meye Thompson and Linda Belleville as translators. The NLT list of translators can be found here: http://www.newlivingtranslation.com/05discoverthenlt/nltintro.asp
My article about Gender Bias in the NLT is here.
The Contemporary English Bible (CEB, 1995) had 120 translators of which about 20 are women. http://www.commonenglishbible.com/Explore/AbouttheCEB/Translators/tabid/207/Default.aspx
The Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB 2009) have several women on their “Reviewers and English Stylists” list. http://hcsb.org/about.aspx
The English Standard Version (ESV, 2001) did not have a single woman on their translation committee or review committee. My article on The ESV Bible’s Men-only Club here.
