Biography Editing & Translation into Russian

I'm seeking a professional editor and translator to assist with a biography project. The English portion is approximately 250 pages, already written, and requires comprehensive editing and content restructuring. The ideal candidate will:

- Enhance grammar, style and tone to ensure a polished and professional final product.
- Restructure content for clarity and coherence.
- Edit for a narrative and storytelling style, making the text engaging and accessible.

The project also involves translating the improved English text into Russian.

Historical and cultural references are included in the source materials, so the freelancer will not need to conduct extensive research. However, a keen understanding of these references and their importance to the narrative will be beneficial.

Skills required for this job include:
- Native-level proficiency in both English and Russian
- Extensive experience in editing and content restructuring
- Professional translation skills
- Strong understanding of narrative and storytelling writing styles
- Ability to comprehend and incorporate historical and cultural references

Please note, the English text will need to be improved from its current state to ensure a high-quality final product.
