  • MICHIKO YAMAOKA Hiroshima A-Bomb survivor, in front of her mother's picture inside her appartment. She was 15 years old and a third-year student at a girl's middle school. She was working as a mobilized student at the Hiroshima Central Telephone Office and at the time of the bombing she was on her way to work. She was badly injured and would have died under a wall that collapsed on her, if her mother wouldn't have come to her rescue. Her face was disfigured by the injuries and by keloids that grew on it. Her condition made her want to die but her mother's support helped her regain the will for life. Later she went to the US and had 27 surgical operations on her keloids. She is one of the survivors who tell their stories in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and she has been even traveling overseas to tell her story.

  • HIROKO HATAKEYAMA: Elementary school student who was four kilometers from the epicenter.  She lost many of her relatives in the bombing, including her cousin who was the same age.  We felt worn our and usually retreated to the barn, away from the quarreling adults.  One day my cousin confessed that his hair had started falling out.  I still vividly remember his blank face, frightened at this sign of death.  She still cries when she tells this story and is one of the few survivors who confesses to hating America. When she was invited by the UN to speak in New York two years ago, she almost didn't go. "I couldn't bear the thought of going to the US".
