Author’s Information

Hiroko Sakamoto was born and raised in Kobe. She graduated from the Department of English Literature at Doshisha University.
She had advocated for food education from early childhood for over 40 years, and was a one of the pioneers in the practice of food education in Japan. She was also the creator of NHK Educational TV's "Hitori-de-Dekiru-Mon" (I Can Do It by Myself Alone) as in charge of cooking instruction and supervision from the first season for many years.
She was a socially conscious cooking researcher who had worked on a wide range of problems, including food education, nursing care, disaster prevention, and food village revitalization, believing that "the kitchen is a microcosm of society."
In education, she implemented hands-on education in the field of food education. She developed teaching materials as part of her research at the Children's Museum, and her "Kids Kitchen" cooking class for children attracted attention as a trump card for improving real academic ability.
She was a victim of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and based on her experience, she introduced a way to get ready for any disasters with a less effort in the kitchen. She passed away in 2018.
