Extract
We dedicate this volume to Dr. Sharon Minichiello. Without her leadership, this book would never have been produced or published. Sharon initiated this project as director of the Center for Japanese Studies by organizing a conference at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa called “Crossroads Hawai‘i” in 2001. She also contacted the University of Hawai‘i Press about publishing the papers from that conference and began turning these conference papers into a book. But Sharon did much more than just organize the conference that produced this book. She was a friend, a superb mentor, and a great teacher. She was a wonderful colleague. Tireless and committed, Sharon gave of her time selflessly. Our deepest thanks to her.
Acknowledgments go to several people who were instrumental in the publication of this volume. Our thanks to Director of University of Hawai‘i Press William Hamilton, who was very supportive and professional. He ensured fairness in the review process. We are grateful to the University of Hawai‘i Center for Japanese Studies for its support of this project. Director of the Center for Japanese Studies Dr. Robert Huey stuck with this project through all its hills and valleys. A special thanks to the Crossroads project steering committee, composed of Jim Cartwright, Dr. Paul Hooper, Dr. Sharon Minichiello, Dr. George Oshiro, Chieko Tachihata, and Dr. Eileen Tamura. The determination of this group helped make the publication of this book a reality. We are saddened to report Dr. Oshiro’s passing in December 2007. George was particularly instrumental in the creation of this volume; in addition to serving on the steering committee, George encouraged the younger scholars in the project and always gave helpful feedback. He was a great colleague and mentor to us all and we will miss him.
