Autorenporträt

?Leslie A. Sussan was born and raised in Manhattan, and now lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, with her daughter Kendra and their cat, Neko-chan. She was born and raised in New York City and graduated from Bryn Mawr College and Georgetown Law School. Over a long career as an attorney, she litigated for the U.S. Department of Justice, represented migrant farmworkers and abused children, and has now served for fourteen years as an administrative appellate judge for the federal government. (Everything written here, however, reflects only her own work and not any government position.) She attends Bethesda Friends Meeting. She loves to learn about different cultures through books and travel; she cannot carry a tune or follow a recipe. She and Kendra lived in Hiroshima for a year in 1987-88 and have visited Japan many times since.?Greg Mitchell is an author and journalist who has published twelve non-fiction books on many aspects of United States history. He wrote the 2011 book, Atomic Cover-Up: Two U.S. Soldiers, Hiroshima & Nagasaki, and The Greatest Movie Never Made, and co-wrote, with Robert Jay Lifton, the 1996 book Hiroshima in America. In the 1980s, he edited Nuclear Times magazine. His latest book is The Beginning or the End: How Hollywood--and America--Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, and he is completing a documentary on the footage shot by Herbert Sussan and the other American and Japanese filmmakers.
