Kiyo Sato

Kiyo Sato was raised on a farm in Sacramento, California. She was attending Sacramento Junior College at the outbreak of World War II, when her parents and eight siblings were evacuated and forced into the Poston Internment Camp. Her memoirs, Kiyo's Story and Dandelion Through the Crack, chronicle her family's struggle to endure these harsh conditions and to rebuild their lives afterward in the face of lingering prejudice.
