Fred Uleman

Fred Uleman came to Japan after graduating from the University of Michigan, and started translating in 1967 at Kunihiro Masao’s instigation. The first few years were spent doing a wide variety of J2E work at Simul International and on his own. Yet he quickly realized the advantages of specializing – i.e., indulging his interest in business and politics -- and assembled an impressive array of public- and private-sector clients. Now more than 40 years later, he has scaled back and spends the bulk of his time on family and community concerns. He was a founding member of first SWET and then JAT and was recently re-elected to another term on the JAT Board of Directors.
