Jacobs is a scholar and translator of modern Hebrew poetry whose academic research is intertwined with her work as a literary translator. Drawing from her translations of Hebrew poetry—by Leah Goldberg, Vaan Nguyen, and Hezy Leskly, among others—Jacobs will share her experiences as a scholar-translator and the research that her practice of translation has made possible.
