Looking Back
Greetings to everyone! We look forward to another wonderful year with you!
LOOKING BACK ON 2011
Our first meeting of the year was the annual membership meeting in Morgan Hill on February 12. The guest speaker was Dr. Masako Miura (96) who was one of only two women in her class at USC Medical School just before World War II. After graduation, she joined four other doctors at the Manzanar Relocation Center, CA. She later served at Topaz camp in Utah. After the war, she worked as dermatologist in Monterey.
