After returning to Hiroshima to see his ailing father, Keiko's father found it impossible to return to America as his mother hid his passport to keep him in Japan. Shortly, Keiko's mother joined him in Hiroshima, also her hometown. Unlike her eight older siblings, then, Keiko was born in Japan, in 1936. She recalls the challenge of being sent to the countryside at the age of eight as part of shudan sokai, a wartime program for children aiming to protect the youth from fire bombings in cities. The food shortage and black market called yamiichi that flourished after the war, too, left Keiko a strong impression. She is a nyushi survivor, as she was exposed to radiation by walking through the city of Hiroshima three days after the bombing. She lost one of her older sisters to the bomb. She came to the United States in 1960 with a help of her US-born brother, by then living in Los Angeles. She relearned English from her father who was also back in the United States and in the area at that time. Keiko attended a technical college to study design while working as a \"schoolgirl\" and worked briefly in Beverly Hills as a dressmaker before she married Nisei from Stockton. A former prisoner of the Gila River War Relocation Center, he worked as a mechanic at Chevrolet after the war and became an owner of a car repair shop. Keiko helped the shop's book keeping, while she also raised two children and worked at a grocery store in order to pay for her health insurance. At the time of the interview, Keiko had just joined a biannual medical checkup conducted by Hiroshima physicians in San Francisco for the first time because of the encouragement by another US survivor. After her husband passed away in 1998, she has been enjoying talking with her children, going to a Buddhist church in Stockton, and keeping in touch with her Nisei friends.","extent":"1:38:22","links_children":"ddr-densho-1021-3","creators":[{"role":"narrator","oh_id":965,"namepart":"Keiko Shinmoto"},{"role":"interviewer","namepart":"Naoko Wake"}],"format":"vh","language":["eng"],"contributor":"Densho","rights":"cc","genre":"interview","location":"Stockton, California","creation":"25-Jul-11","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Keiko Shinmoto narrator \nNaoko Wake interviewer","download_large":"ddr-densho-1021-3-1-mezzanine-701b9f69a1-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-one-5-100","model":"entity","index":"14 6064/{'value': 6865, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-one-5-100/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-one-5-100/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-100-mezzanine-62dd2bd2d1-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-one-5/ddr-one-5-100-mezzanine-62dd2bd2d1-a.jpg"},"title":"Case file for Keizaburo Koyama from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

On March 5, 1941, Koyama was appointed as a miscellaneous chairman for the new Chamber. The report by Quinn notes that Koyama was \"fairly well acquainted\" with the local influential Portland Japanese community. He notes that Koyama is also on the Financial Department of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce for the 31st District (Linnton District of Portland). Additional information was provided by Dr. A. F. Weeks of the State Board of Dental Examiners and a Mrs. Crew of the north Pacific Dental College. Quinn notes that Koyama shares his business office with three other Japanese nationals - Dr. George Shiomi, Dr. D.N. Unthank, and Howard Nomura. Paul Yamada, a Nisei, states that prior to becoming a dentist, Koyama worked in the Oregon News (Oshu Nippo) with Iwao Oyama, its current publisher.","extent":"1 photocopy: 8.50 W x 14 H","links_children":"ddr-one-5-100","creators":[{"role":"author","namepart":"Quinn, Vincent M."}],"topics":[{"term":"World War II -- Pearl Harbor and aftermath -- Arrest, searches, and seizures","id":"50"}],"format":"doc","language":["eng"],"persons":[{"namepart":"Weeks, A.F."},{"namepart":"Mrs. Crew"},{"namepart":"Shiomi, George"},{"namepart":"Unthank, D.N."},{"namepart":"Nomura, Howard"},{"namepart":"Hord, F.S."},{"namepart":"Koyama, Ken"},{"namepart":"Yamada, Paul"},{"namepart":"Oyama, Iwao"}],"contributor":"Japanese American Museum of Oregon; Portland, Oregon","geography":[{"term":"Portland","id":"289"},{"term":"Seattle","id":"293"}],"rights":"cc","genre":"misc_document","creation":"1/14/1942","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Quinn, Vincent M. author Weeks, A.F. \nMrs. Crew \nShiomi, George \nUnthank, D.N. \nNomura, Howard \nHord, F.S. \nKoyama, Ken \nYamada, Paul \nOyama, Iwao","download_large":"ddr-one-5-100-mezzanine-62dd2bd2d1-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-densho-10-2","model":"entity","index":"15 6065/{'value': 6865, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-densho-10-2/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-densho-10-2/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-densho-10/ddr-densho-10-2-mezzanine-768fb04ca7-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-densho-10/ddr-densho-10-2-mezzanine-768fb04ca7-a.jpg"},"title":"The staff of the Minidoka Irrigator","description":"The staff of the Minidoka Irrigator, the newspaper of the Minidoka concentration camp, is shown in the paper's office.

(This interview was conducted at the Voices of Japanese American Redress Conference, held on the UCLA campus and sponsored by the UCLA Asian American Studies Center and the UCLA School of Public Policy and Social Research. Because of the full conference schedule, our interviews were limited to one hour. The interviews therefore focused primarily on a single topic, namely, the narrator's role in the redress movement.)","extent":"00:58:48","links_children":"ddr-densho-1000-99","creators":[{"role":"narrator","oh_id":100,"namepart":"Grayce Uyehara"},{"role":"interviewer","namepart":"Larry Hashima"},{"role":"videographer","namepart":"Matt Emery"}],"format":"vh","language":["eng"],"persons":[{"nr_id":"88922/nr0044d99","namepart":"Kaneda, Grayce Ritsu"}],"contributor":"Densho","rights":"cc","genre":"interview","location":"University of CA, Los Angeles","creation":"September 13, 1997","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Grayce Uyehara narrator \nLarry Hashima interviewer \nMatt Emery videographer Kaneda, Grayce Ritsu 88922nr0044d99","download_large":"denshovh-ugrayce-01-a.jpg"}],"query":{"query":{"query_string":{"query":"Nisei","fields":["id","model","links_html","links_json","links_img","links_thumb","links_children","status","public","title","description","contributor","creators","creators.namepart","facility","format","genre","geography","label","language","creation","location","persons","rights","topics","image_url","display_name","bio","extent","search_hidden"],"analyze_wildcard":false,"allow_leading_wildcard":false,"default_operator":"AND"}},"aggs":{"facility":{"nested":{"path":"facility"},"aggs":{"facility_ids":{"terms":{"field":"facility.id","size":1000}}}},"format":{"terms":{"field":"format"}},"genre":{"terms":{"field":"genre"}},"rights":{"terms":{"field":"rights"}},"topics":{"nested":{"path":"topics"},"aggs":{"topics_ids":{"terms":{"field":"topics.id","size":1000}}}}},"_source":["id","model","links_html","links_json","links_img","links_thumb","links_children","status","public","title","description","contributor","creators","creators.namepart","facility","format","genre","geography","label","language","creation","location","persons","rights","topics","image_url","display_name","bio","extent","search_hidden"]}}
