They say "Life writes the best stories". From her humble beginnings in a coal-mining area of Manchuria, to super-stardom across all of Asia, to imminent execution by firing-squad, to re-building her career in post-WW2 destroyed Japan, to the heights of Hollywood and bright lights of New York's Broadway, to yet another career as a world-travelling journalist, author, and TV personality, followed by eighteen years serving in the Diet (Upper House of Japan's Parliament), through her final years bravely speaking truth to power: such a life story is truly one of the best you will ever read. Yoshiko Yamaguchi set gold-standards for honesty, integrity, inner and outer beauty, singing ability, and a marvelous energy for the work of life.
