groups at a City-Wide Unity Conference which took place at the Society for Ethical Culture on March 1945, under the auspices
of the Interracial Youth Committee. Ken was one of several hundred young people representing sixty schools, church groups,
and settlement houses throughout the city who participated in the conference. A former resident of Los Angeles, Ken is now
a student at George Washington High School in New York City. He relocated there from the Gila River Relocation Center with
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Nobukichi Shimizu. Mr. Shimizu is engaged in the bean sprout business in New York. --
