Book Talk: Photographic Memories

Wednesday, September 30, 2020 

 

 

Imagine: you’re a budding successful photographer in California with a bright future, and then on December 7th 1941 everything changes. Midori Shimoda could have never imagined the trajectory that his life would take for the next few years, especially his internment at Fort Missoula.

 

Join authors Risa Shimoda (Midori’s daughter), and Bob Fleshner for a discussion of their book: Photographic Memories: A Story of Shinjitsu live via zoom. Risa will share stories from the book about her father’s fascinating biography complete with an unaccompanied trip across the Pacific as a child, finding refuge in Utah, arrest under suspicion of espionage, and the courage to begin a new life in a new city.

 

You don’t need to have already read the book to enjoy the discussion, but if you’d like to purchase it, you can find it here.
