About the Author
Yoshio Kawashima was born in Tokyo in 1930. While studying economics at university, an encounter with Life magazine taught him the power of photojournalism and led him to start his collaboration with the Sankei Shimbun newspaper in 1952. As a professional photographer, he was assigned to various parts of the world, including the Middle East. His photographic report from South America on Japanese immigrants won him the prestigious 1958 Vaughn-Ueda journalist award. Upon retirement, he became the president of the Japan University Press. Today, he is an honorary member of the Photographic Society of Japan.
