Subject Okura, Kosuye, 1900-1997--Interviews; Japanese Americans--Social life and customs; Carbon County (Utah); United States--Emigration and immigration
Description The interview with Kosuye Okura covers the subjects of immigrating to the United States, making sake, her family background in Hiroshima, her arranged marriage, the Bee Cafe, living in Los Angeles, and returning to Japan. The Carbon County oral history project (1972-1993) consists of oral histories from residents of Carbon County, Utah. While the main emphasis is on living in coal mine country, the interviews are verbal snapshots of rural Utah life from the earliest settlers to as recently as 1993.
