Where were you born? Is that where you grew up? What did your parents do in the way of work? Do you have siblings?

I was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1942. Father graduated from Texas A&M and had done work related to cotton business and import/export of agriculture between the U.S. and Japan. For a short time, Mother was a physical therapist having studied at Japan campus of the Bouv'e-Boston School of Physical Education, but she married young and stayed at home thereafter as most of the women of her era did. I have a brother and a sister in Japan.
