At our senior home, we have a 104-year-old woman named T-san. She and I have worked together to write her autobiography for the past 2 years. Finally, it was completed a few days ago. The book was written by me, but was told to me by T-san. This book was written in both Japanese and English.
My compositions are not rhetorical even in the Japanese parts. However, for T-san’s descendants, this book contains enough information to trace their roots back in Japan. I think that if we were to take more time we would find more interesting stories, but we must finish up now, in deference to her age.
This cover photo was taken when T-san was 21 years old , 3 years after her first arrival to America in 1924.
