About

Attended Japanese school on 12th Avenue in Los Angeles while a student at American School (Holy Name of Jesus on Cimarron).Participated in many activities, including Japanese speech contest under direction of Yamaguchi Sensei. Spent a year in Japan as Michael Clarke Rockefeller fellow in 1969-1970. Remain interested in things Japanese, still trying to improve language skills. Hope to return to Japan (on bucket list)to see friends and observe changes.
