Who is Fujiwara Sakuya?

Fujiwara writes:

"I was born in Sendai, Miyagi, in 1937. I spent my formative years in Iwate and Akita, and after World War II broke out, my family went to North Korea, before traveling to the furthest recesses of Manchuria and Mongolia. My father was a field researcher in linguistics and anthropology. When, on August 9, 1945, Soviet tanks launched a surprise offensive on Manchurian border towns (now part of Inner Mongolia) in violation of international treaties, my family fled to the South Manchurian harbor city of Andong, where we lived as refugees for around 18 months. I learned later that we were among a handful of Japanese nationals who escaped massacre at the hands of the Soviet Tank Corps, and only by a matter of hours. This revelation brought home to me the horror of war.

I would grow up to become a journalist, residing for long periods in the United States and Canada as a foreign correspondent. Later in my career, I often travelled to Asia and Europe. "
