Mitsuye May Yamada was born on July 5, 1923 in Fukuoka and grew up in Seattle. In 1942, when she was 17, her family was among over 120,000 persons of Japanese ancestry who were forcibly removed from their homes and sent to concentration camps for the duration of the war.
She later attended the University of Cincinnati and earned a BA from New York University and an MA from the University of Chicago. She received an honorary doctorate from Simmons College in Boston in 2009.
Yamada was one of the first and most vocal Asian American women writers who wrote about the wartime incarceration of Japanese Americans. She is the author of “Camp Notes and Other Poems” (1976) and “Desert Run: Poems and Stories” (1988), both of which are available in the combined volume “Camp Notes and Other Writings” (1998).
At the age of 96, she released her latest work, “Full Circle: New and Selected Poems” (UC Santa Barbara Department of Asian American Studies, 2019).
With a lifelong commitment to fighting for human rights, Yamada began working with a local chapter of Amnesty International and was eventually elected to serve on the Amnesty International USA National Board of Directors, where she served two terms.
Yamada and fellow Nellie Wong were featured in the 1981 documentary “Mitsuye and Nellie: Two Asian American Woman Poets” by the Academy Award-winning filmmakers Light-Saraf Films. She was the recipient of a MELUS award, a Vesta Award from the Los Angeles Women’s Building, and a Jesse Bernard Wise Women Award from the Center for Women’s Policy Studies in Washington, D.C. She was a Women’s Day USA Honoree, has been designated a KCET Local Hero, and was a Yaddo Fellow in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.
