Shane Sato. The Go For Broke Spirit
Over 18 years in the making, photographer Shane Sato has been shooting
moving portraits of Nisei soldiers to create a one of a kind coffee table book.
Poignant images of men who fought for America while America put their families
and loved ones in prison. This 184-page 12x12 hardcover book contains portraits
of over 80 Japanese American WWII veterans. His book unveils the wide
range of feelings the Japanese Americans must have experienced after the attack
on Pearl Harbor. Sato artistically captures these men’s
emotions—expressively photographed in a way not many have seen. His
ability to bring out personality in what are usually stoic subjects is
touching. The story of the Nisei is inspiring… and each portrait is accompanied
by candid photos and a short story—usually a personal one, whenever
possible. Without writing a history book, Sato “talks story” to share the
lives of the Nisei to future generations so that their accomplishments and
history are not forgotten. This portrait book is not just a glimpse into
Japanese American history, but a triumphant story of American history. Shane
will be at the event to sell and sign his books
