Dr. Akiko Mikamo is the author of the book and film “8:15
Hiroshima—From Father to Daughter,” based on a first-hand account of
her father Shinji Mikamo.
Dr. Akiko Mikamo is a Japanese psychologist, author, and the
executive producer of the film. The film presents the horrifying
reality of nuclear war from Shinji’s perspective, but also provides
the basis for which future wars can be avoided, through love,
forgiveness, and compassion for the other. Such a message has never
been more needed than now, as we approach the 80th anniversary of the
use of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, two events which
have not been properly understood by the majority of the American
public, but which show us the horrifying truth of nuclear warfare.
