Equalizing Volume Of A Wav File

I use Sony Soundforge 8.0. I'm still quite a noob at it. Anyway, I extracted the audio from a home-made interview. Since the interviewer was closer to the camera, the interviewer's voice is loud. As you can imagine, the interviewee has a much softer voice on the audio track relative to the interviewer.

What I want to do is equalize the entire audio track so the interviewer and interviewee have similar sound amplitudes. I know I can go through the entire track and manually select the softer sections and amplify them but it's a tedious task. I was wondering if there's some kind of filter I can use. I tried playing around in Soundforge, looking for a Process that does it. Haven't found one yet though.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks
