When Kevin Miyazaki was a child, there was something his family rarely discussed . His father’s family was interned in American camps during World War II. Now let’s not mince words here.  His father’s family is Japanese and lived in Takoma, Washington. But after the attacks on Pearl Harbor, Japanese-Americans were rounded up and put into concentration camps. Kevin went on to be a successful fine arts photographer.
