His most recent book, “Nikkei Harvest,” which is a collection of book reviews he has written for the Nichi Bei Weekly, will be previewed at this program by editor Kenji Taguma. Artwork by noted woodcut artist Patricia Wakida is featured in this book, scheduled to be released later this year. Personally autographed book plates will be available to those attending the program.
The program, featuring a host of colleagues and friends who have known Hansen over the years, is a salute to the noted scholar’s numerous contributions to the annals of Japanese American history. Manzanar Committee Co-chair Bruce Embrey will serve as emcee.
