Timeline

1910

Toshio Mori (March 3, 1910 – 1980) was an American author, best known for being one of the earliest (and perhaps the first) Japanese–American writers to publish a book of fiction.

Mori was born in Oakland, California and grew up in San Leandro.

In spite of working long hours at his family's garden nursery, Mori endeavored to become a writer and managed to publish his first story "The Brothers" in The Coast magazine when he was 28 years old.

He had a tentative publication date set for his collection of stories Yokohama, California when World War II broke out, which brought the publication process to a halt.

During World War II, following the signing of Executive Order 9066, he and his family were interned at Topaz War Relocation Center in Utah, where Mori edited the journal Trek for a year.

After the war, Mori returned to the Bay Area where he continued to write.

1944

During his internment, Mori's tone occasionally became dark, especially in a short story dedicated to his brother (who was badly injured in the 442nd Regimental Combat Team) which describes a fight between brothers over patriotic duty to their country.

Unpublished Novels

1949

He is the author of Yokohama, California (1949), The Chauvinist and Other Stories (1979), and The Woman from Hiroshima (1980).

Mori worked most of his adult life in a small family nursery.

1986

He was posthumously named an American Book Award winner for Yokohama, California in 1986.

Though Mori was a short story fiction writer, his stories often echoed and reflected the life of Japanese Americans in pre and postwar America.

Imbued with wonderment at the everyday routine of the people around him, Mori's stories told of seemingly menial situations that emphasized the emotional connections and culture that all Americans share, regardless of their racial background.

This tone was one of the main reasons why Mori's work was so successful; it was accessible to more than just the Japanese American community.

Even Mori's work while in the internment camp was from the 'optimistic perspective', a style of writing in the internment camps which encouraged Japanese Americans not to be pessimistic and have faith in the American democratic system.

Though the majority of Mori's work was considered lighthearted and even comical, some of his works did emphasize the taut emotional strain that a Japanese American felt, before, after and during the war.

Most of his works prewar described the slightly comical problems that a Japanese American dealt with on a daily basis, trying to balance their Japanese culture with the American one.
