A Stroll Around Inokashira Park!

On Wednesday, March 6, I enjoyed a stroll around Kichijoji's Inokashira Park with actress-singer Yumi Mizusawa. Of course, it's still too early for cherry blossoms, but the weather wasn't warm enough to enjoy a lengthy walk.

By sheer coincidence, while I was waiting to meet Mizusawa-san at the train station, I spotted writer Fumio Ishimori approaching the ticket gates. We were both quite surprised and had a brief conversation.


I was happy to speak with Mizusawa-san about her acting and singing career in great detail. She began appearing on television in the early 1960s as a child actress, so her career in entertainment covers a lot of ground.

Many thanks to Mizusawa-san for the enjoyable afternoon!
