Newbery Wi n n e r at CSUF Writer of children’s lit- erature visits campus to share life experiences

BY SArAh GAmmILL Daily Titan Staff Writer [email protected] Newbery Award winner Cynthia Kadohata came to Cal Sate Fullerton Sunday to share her heritage, books and life experiences about being a Japanese-American in Southern California. In a lecture series for the Nikkei Heritage Museum to highlight its current exhibit, “Sowing Dreams, Cultivating Lives: Nikkei Farm- ers in Pre-WWII Orange County,” Kadohata’s lecture was hosted by Phi Alpha Theta, The History Student Association and the Southwest Oral History Association. Arthur Hansen, professor emeri- tus of history at CSUF, said he formed his relationship with Cyn- thia through e-mail, since Cynthia is a “road warrior.” “A lot of our closest relationships have been formed through e-mail, and that’s true of my relationship with Cynthia,” Hansen said. Being the daughter and grand- daughter of Orange County farmers, Kadohata has been able to relate her history, along with fictional aspects, to create many children’s books. Kadohata’s career as a writer though, had rough beginnings. After dropping out of high school, her mother told her she needed to get a job, and she did as a waitress at Bob’s Big Boy. Soon after Kadohata returned to school and went on to receive her bachelor’s degree in jour- nalism at USC. While attending USC she said she made her living as a writer from in- surance money she received from a car that went over a curb, and landed on top of her. “First things went well, and things
