The thirty-year acting career of the late Yuki Shimoda reflects the achievements and career disappointments that faced Asian American actors. Shimoda persevered on to land challenging, dramatic roles, such as in the television movie, Farewell to Manzanar. Shimoda’s journey from Sacramento’s “J-Town,” to his imprisonment in an American concentration camp, and his experiences on Broadway and Hollywood are insightfully explored through interviews and selected clips from his film and television work.
