Dr. Montebruno Saller received her doctoral degree in East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Southern California. She is writing a book titled Japanese American Citizens as Survivors of the Hiroshima Atomic Bombing (Routledge, forthcoming). This book tells the story of young American citizens of Japanese ancestry who were in Hiroshima during World War II and their efforts to survive the atomic bomb, make their way back to the United States, build a life on the painful memories of their past, start a social movement to obtain medical relief from both the Japanese and American governments, and contribute to the peace movement for a world without nuclear weapons. Her presentation will discuss the challenges she has faced in the writing process.
